Farming Today - 15/07/26 New UK Swiss trade deal, Farming in Protected Landscapes grants, deer control in Loch Lomond
A new trade deal is signed with Switzerland: it's welcomed by farmers, but will it go any way to combat a significant downturn in food and drink exports, while imports are on the rise?
The Farming In Protected Landscapes scheme is part of the new system of farm payments being developed in England to replace the old EU subsidies. We hear how hill farmers are using it to help keep their business afloat.
How a crackdown on deer can help keep the banks of Loch Lomond bonnie.
Presented by Anna Hill and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
