Access to land in Wales, Blackcurrants, London sheep

The Welsh government has plans to allow camping, games and other outdoor activities on open access land. John Davies from The National Farmers' Union Cymru shares his concerns.

The Welsh government has plans to allow camping, games and other outdoor activities on open access land. John Davies from The National Farmers' Union Cymru explains why he thinks these proposals could undermine the efforts of farmers to maximise their income. Kate Ashbrook from the Open Spaces Society says farmers should stop scaremongering and embrace increased access to coast and countryside which could be of as much benefit to them as it could to those visiting Wales.

In today's celebration of the British harvest Nancy Nicolson joins in the blackcurrant picking on Tayside, where the fruit is grown for Ribena.
