Pickups For Peace – UK farmers deliver 100 four-wheel-drive vehicles to Ukraine, tenant farmers accuse Defra of dragging heels on Rock Review, small abattoir revival, British wool prospects, & Cornwall Council backs local farmers

This week, tenant farmers accuse the government of taking a “pick and mix” approach to reform of the tenanted sector in England.

It follows the government's long-awaited response to last autumn's Rock Review, set up to provide a framework for a more resilient tenanted sector.

We hear about the future for the UK's small abattoirs – and how a resurgence could help meet demand for local food from local farmers.

On the markets, we've all the latest commodity prices and hear about the prospects for the British wool trade.

We chat to the Cornish councillor behind a landmark decision to back British meat and livestock producers.

And we catch up with the farmers who've donated, driven and delivered 100 Pickups for Peace to war-torn Ukraine.
