麻豆约拍

Charlotte Smith launches the search for 麻豆约拍 Farmer Of The Year 2012. As nominations open for the 13th 麻豆约拍 Food and Farming Awards we want to celebrate the best of British food and those companies and individuals who grow, make and supply it. Judges Adam Henson and Christine Tacon tell Charlotte what they are looking for in this year's nominations.

Next week there will be a judicial review into the Government's decision to allow badgers to be culled in England to halt the spread of TB in cattle. Jack Reedy from The Badger Trust explains why he thinks that the animals should be vaccinated instead. Meanwhile, Andrew Biggs, former president of the British Cattle Veterinary Association, tells Charlotte why the disease is such a problem for farmers.

And..... Clare Freeman goes tractor pulling in Warwickshire.
