Broadcasting from a brand new chicken farm to look at the UK poultry industry.

Charlotte Smith is at a new chicken farm to look at the UK poultry industry.

Charlotte Smith is at a new intensive chicken farm in Bedfordshire to explore the UK poultry industry. The sheds have been designed and built by the Applied Group, which then helps to manage the business on behalf of the farmer. 
We look at how the industry is tackling campylobacter and the over-use of anti-biotics, and what role new technology will play in the future of the industry.
Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Sally Challoner.
