Ian Breach and Chris Baines report on this weekend's
Festival of British Food and Farming in Hyde Park which claims to be the biggest event held in London since the Great Exhibition of 1851. There is everything from rare breeds to JCB dancing diggers and the organisers hope it will help restore the industry's somewhat tarnished image.
Also the Country File series on villagers continues with a look at life on the rural beat with Lancashire PC Steve Jones.
Plus at 12.55pm the weather for the countryside with JOHN KETTLEY.
