A tale of two sheep farmers and the extension of the badger cull.
Presented by Anna Hill. Licences have been issued to three new counties in England to cull badgers in an attempt to halt the spread of bovine TB.
In Herefordshire we hear the story of two sheep farmers who exemplify the changes in the modern industry.
Continuing our series on the green belt, reporter Howard Shannon visits Hertfordshire where a fierce debate has been taking place over the quality of farming land now earmarked for more than 500 new homes.
And as the Government announces the latest measures to stop the spread of TB in cattle, NFU president Meurig Raymond tells the programme what his members feel about the extension of the badger cull to three new counties.
