05/02/22 Farming Today This Week: two years from Brexit, rural health, Landscape Recovery Scheme
Two years since Brexit - how are farming businesses doing now?
This week marked two years since we left the EU, a decision which has had a huge impact on food and farming, from markets to subsidy payments. So where are we now?
We hear a warning that people living in rural areas have less access to health and social care than their urban counterparts.
The latest of the new Environmental Land Management Schemes is open to applications. Defra says the Landscape Recovery Scheme could transform thousands of hectares by taking a landscape approach.
Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
