Farming Today This Week

A new voluntary code of practice for the dairy industry comes into effect this week. Not all buyers have signed up, so Caz Graham asks how effective it will really be.

A new voluntary code of conduct for the dairy industry comes into effect this week, designed to make dealings with farmers fairer and more transparent. But not all milk processors have signed up yet. Caz Graham discusses the code with Rob Harrison, the Dairy Board Vice Chairman at the National Farmers Union, and asks whether it will really make a difference to farmers.

Presented by Caz Graham. Produced by Sarah Swadling.
