The team are on the Balcaskie Estate in the East Neuk of Fife.

The team are on the Balcaskie Estate in the East Neuk of Fife, where Charlotte Smith tries her hand at the fast-growing rural sport of competitive ploughing.

Charlotte Smith, Ellie Harrison and Steve Brown are on the Balcaskie Estate in the East Neuk of Fife. It has a stunning coastline, top farmland and is the source of some of the best produce in Scotland. We’ll hear how it farms, feeds and supports the local community. 

Charlotte hears from the estate manager how they are overhauling the way they farm, introducing new techniques such as mob grazing. She also tries her hand at what’s being dubbed 'the fastest growing rural sport in Scotland’ - competitive ploughing! Charlotte also asks whether farmers are being stopped from cashing in on one of the high street’s fastest growing health trends?

Steve is at Pittenweem harbour as the local fishing boats bring in their catch of the day, Ellie meets some local food producers and hears how the facilities on the estate offer a vital link in the chain from food to fork, and it’s a tense time for Adam Henson down on the farm as his cattle are tested for TB.
