All this week we are taking a look at how Bovine Tuberculosis is affecting farm businesses. It is believed TB can spread from badger to cattle, and one way to prevent that from happening is to vaccinate badgers against TB (we will talk about vaccinating cattle later this week). Earlier this year the Government introduced a new way to get more people helping with vaccinating the badgers - and our reporter Bob Walker has been to meet one group doing it in Cheshire.

A small abattoir in the Peak District is closing today after 100 years of business. Its owner says bureaucracy is preventing smaller operators from operating, as well as staff shortages. Figures from the Food Standards Agency suggest small abattoirs are closing at a rate of 10% a year.

And later this year, Caroline Lucas the Green Party MP for Brighton Pavilion will be putting forward a Right to Roam Bill, she tells us how she thinks it could work.
