The price of an acre of UK farmland varies from just 拢50 to 拢10,000. Anna Hill hears what makes the difference between one of the most expensive, in the grasslands of Cheshire, to one of the cheapest areas in the uplands near Inverness.

And farmers are being asked to report cases of sheep worrying and attacks by dogs to build up an picture of the scale of the problem. Attacks can leave the livestock not only with severe injuries but, at this time of the year, can lead to aborted lambs. After an attack on her farm which meant four sheep had to be destroyed, Anita Perry from Somerset talks about the decision made by her partner to shoot the aggressive dog.

This programme was presented by Anna Hill and Produced in Birmingham by Angela Frain.
