	Description:		Water shortages in Suffolk have lead one water company to refuse connecting up new businesses who use a lot of water, or allowing more use of water of expanding business who also use a lot of water. Two lapwing breeding pairs and chicks have been found on a farm in Northern Ireland; it is the first time the endangered birds have been seen in the area for several years. And an expert in crop and environmental science shares his thoughts on the state of salad production in the UK this year. Presented by Caz Graham and produced by Rhiannon Fitz-Gerald.
