We hear about the distress of losing livestock and hear what help is available for farmers.

Floods continue to cause chaos on farms in South Wales, alongside the Rivers Severn and Wye, and elsewhere too. Today, we hear about the distress of losing livestock and hear what help is available for farmers.

As part of our week looking at the commercial fishing industry, Jo Lonsdale went to North Shields to meet Nik Hanlon, manager of North Shields Fish Quay.

Presented by Caz Graham and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
