In looking at innovation in agriculture, Anna Hill asks whether farmers and researchers can and do speak the same language.

Visiting Lye Cross Farm in Somerset she hears about their experience of working alongside scientists in order to use high fat Jersey milk in their cheddar cheese production, previously something that had been considered inadvisable. But in collaboration with the University of Reading they learnt it certainly is possible, and not only that, but that their yields also increased.

Presented by Anna Hill and produced by Mark Smalley.
