Udgivelsesdato: Feb 21, 2016

Matt Baker and Ellie Harrison are in Staffordshire. Matt visits a school where farming and agriculture has been at the heart of the curriculum for more than 100 years. He helps students vaccinate some sheep and get the lambing sheds ready for the pregnant ewes. Ellie meets the couple with their very own nature reserve that's a favourite with local barn owls. And Adam Henson is in Ayr to find out why it pays for farmers not to put all their eggs in one basket. Since 2012 an incurable disease called Ash Dieback has been killing trees right across Britain. But could an ancient soil treatment give us a chance to fight back? Tom Heap investigates.
