Farming Today

17/04/2009

News and issues in rural Britain with Charlotte Smith. Rustling seems to be on the increase. Farming Today has reported incidents of hundreds of pigs taken from a Staffordshire farm and 100 sheep stolen in south west England. Now a million bees have been stolen from a farm in Shropshire - a risky business for the thief but potentially highly profitable. Charlotte Smith hears that experts believe there are likely to be more such incidents.
