Charlotte Smith finds out what it takes to grow the perfect grass needed for seed production, in Suffolk. Bad weather over the last year has not only made it tougher for farmers to grow seed crops, it's put the demand for seeds wildly out of kilter. As the European Commission prepares to confirm its plans for tightening the regulation of seeds, Charlotte learns about the current UK certification process. Anna Hill hears claims that these new proposals could threaten seed banks holding rare and old varieties, and could end seed sharing.
