	Description:		This week the NFU has held crisis talks with DEFRA asking for urgent support for the dairy industry through the coronavirus lockdown. As restaurants and cafes close, the knock on in the milk market has left some farmers pouring thousands of litres down the drain. Easter Weekend should be one of the busiest times for garden centres...but since they were forced to close, the plant nurseries which usually stock them have been left with millions of pounds of unwanted plants. But it's not all doom and gloom. Caz Grahram brings you lots of stories of how rural communities and businesses are finding innovative ways to cope in the face of COVID-19. Presented by Caz Graham Produced by Heather Simons
