02/10/2025 Cuts to milk price, bluetongue virus and food security

Description:

The price farmers are paid for milk is falling. This comes at a bad time for many farmers who are having to buy in forage for their cows after the long hot summer slowed, or stopped, the growth of grass.

The new Environment Secretary Emma Reynolds says farming is "transforming and modernising". In one of her first speeches, at the Labour Party conference, she told delegates she's seen first hand how much we depend on hardworking farmers.

And why bluetongue virus matters for food security.

Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
