Farmers say the drought could mean this year's wheat harvest will be the worst for 30 years. Some farmers in East Anglia say they're expecting a 50% drop in yield. If this spring is a taste of things to come, farmers in the UK could be planting "less water dependant strains" in the next few decades. Charlotte Smith meets scientists at the University of Nottingham's Research centre who are crossing traditional wheat with distant relatives from warmer climates to see if they can identify drought resistant crops.
