Tesco and Morrisons are paying millions of pounds to support farmers as the cost of production remains high. Following some food shortages earlier this year, notably of British eggs, the stores say they'll pay costs including rising feed and fertiliser costs. Some commentators have said farmers should be paid a fair price for their produce instead, though the stores say they continue to support their suppliers in many ways.
This week we examine what farming could look like in 2050, including how the industry can transform to zero carbon. Today we ask how farmers could be impacted by the availability of lab-grown meat, which can be produced without emitting greenhouse gases, and using a fraction of the land needed for conventional livestock farming.
