Water restrictions for agriculture are inevitable warns Farming Minister Jim Paice. Charlotte Smith discovers drought is the main talking point at Cereals 2011 - the major arable event. The National Farmers' Union reveals the UK wheat crop is down by 14% overall due to the weather and Allan Wilkinson HSBC's Head of Agriculture says more farmers are looking to invest in reservoirs. Farming Today asks whether food prices will leap upwards as a result of the weather.
Presented by Charlotte Smith. Produced by Melvin Rickarby.
