22/08/2024: Meat imports; bracken controls; fishing industry
Manage episode 435498767 series 1301216
Businesses that import meat, both fresh and processed, could have to pay up to six times more than they were expecting to get each lorry through border checks, according to the British Meat Processors Association.
Bracken is a large and very prolific fern, and it can be a big problem for farmers, particularly in the uplands. It eats into grazing land, it harbours ticks and it is difficult to control.
Mallaig on the west coast of Scotland, around 40 miles north of Fort William, used to be a major fishing port but now times have changed and the industry is shrinking.
