	Description:		The Great Yorkshire Show was the first chance for the new Secretary of State for Environment Food and Rural Affairs, Steve Reed, to chat with farmers since his appointment, less than a week before. The new Chancellor, Rachel Reeves, has committed to relaxing planning rules for house building. It could mean quite a change for rural areas; especially as the boundaries of greenbelt land will be 'reviewed'. The Welsh Government has just published its response to the consultation on its controversial farm payment scheme. Presented by Anna Hill and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
