Charlotte Smith sorts through the myriad descriptions of free-range to discover what the term means. On a visit to a poultry farm in Warwickshire she walks through fields of free-range ducks, hens and chickens and finds out the conditions in which they live, discovering that free-range does not guarantee that the birds range outside.

Though there are many schemes for free-range poultry, there is currently no legal definition for free range pork; Anna Hill visits a farmer who wants that to change, as he believes the meat is often mis-sold as such.

And though it is very rare to see sheep described as free-range Caz Graham meets a farmer who, inspired by Farming Today, will now attempt to market free-range lamb.
