Farming Today - 14/01/2011

Caz Graham talks to one of the British scientists involved in developing the world's first genetically modified chicken. The bird has been designed so it will not spread bird flu. It's still at an experimental stage but the British Poultry Council says public opinion will be a deciding factor in whether GM chickens are ever farmed here. Scientists say the creation of GM chickens could eventually lead to a new generation of virus resistant livestock. Also in the programme, Scottish salmon farmers will be exporting fish to China for the first time.
