Charlotte Smith hears the concerns of an anti-gun group over children being allowed to shoot. But one farmer says shooting is a natural part of country life and should remain so. Neil McDonald takes his seven year old shooting and sees it as a skill to be passed from father to son.

In Wales, the plan to cull badgers control TB remain on track, despite an attempt to halt it in the Welsh Assembly. The aim of the proposed cull is to reduce the number of cattle with TB, a disease which costs 拢100 million of taxpayers money each year to control across the UK.

And as village pubs watch anxiously to see whether trade might dwindle after the rise in beer tax, Farming Today visits a rural local in Dorset. It was closed down 6 years ago, but given a new lease of life by enthusiastic locals.
