Farming Today - 28/10/2010

Landowners are being encouraged to amalgamate smaller tenant farms to make land more profitable. But Caz Graham hears concerns that even fewer opportunities will be available to would-be farmers hoping to start out. Farming Today listeners have been having their say about a campaign suggesting the UK adheres to Central European Time. Environmental groups say having more daylight in the evening would save energy use. Many in Scotland say they'd come off worse but we hear from one farmer who says he's happy with the idea. The UK has a target to produce 15% of its energy from renewables by 2020. One farmer among the hundreds being approached to produce solar energy admits it will have a visual impact but says it'll make his land viable. Presented by Caz Graham and produced by Anne-Marie Bullock.
