Anna Hill hears from MP Peter Hain about his controversial plans for the Severn barrage, which he has quit his shadow cabinet job to support. The RSPB says the barrage will be a disaster for ecology in the area.

Later this week a government delegation is travelling to China to increase the market for food exports from the UK. Terry Jones from the Food and Drink Federation explains the importance China could play for UK food producers.

Britain does already export all over the world, and there are success stories. Last year, for the first time, 100,000 tonnes of seed potatoes were exported from the UK. Moira Hickey visits a Scottish seed potato farmer who says why Scottish spuds are worldbeaters.

Presenter is Anna Hill. Producer is Emma Weatherill.
