Flooding Clear Up

BBC Radio 4 - Farming Today, Flooding Clear Up

The farmers clearing up after the floods.

At the start of Christmas, Caz Graham catches up with Cumbrian farmers as they clear up after the devastating floods.

It's Christmas week but many farmers are still clearing up after the flash floods that hit earlier this month. Caz Graham catches up with some of them in Cumbria, where an information and support centre has been set up at an auction mart. 
Nancy Nicolson is at Kielder Forest in Northumberland to find out how giant Christmas trees for public spaces are grown and felled. And we get a look ahead to 2016 with consultant Graham Redman from The Andersons Centre. Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Sally Challoner.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
