Charlotte reports from the 2018 Farm Business Innovation show at the Birmingham NEC, where she hears how rural businesses can diversify and boost the bottom line.

Anna Hill reports from AgriTech East's REAP conference. The food expert Professor Tim Lang gives his response to the Oxford University report calling for a so-called 'meat tax'.
