As farmer protests continue in Wales the rural affairs minister Lesley Griffiths tells us she is listening.

1500 farmers from across England and Wales gathered in Birmingham for the National Farmers' Union annual conference this week. Minette Batters stood down after six years at the helm and Tom Bradshaw was elected as the new NFU president.

The prime minister spoke at the conference. It's the first time a premier has attended since Gordon Brown in 2008. Rishi Sunak told farmers "I've got your back". He arrived with a raft of announcements including: an annual national food security index, measuring the amount of food grown in the UK; a review of transparency in the poultry supply chain; an annual "farm to fork" summit in Downing Street; and increasing payments for managing environmental agreements.

We also hear from Labour and Liberal Democrats about their plans for agriculture and the environment.
