BBC Radio 4 - Farming Today, 05/01/21 Brexit trade deal, biomethane on farm

Farming under a new EU trade deal - what are the pitfalls and opportunities?

It’s the beginning of the first working week under our new trade deal with the EU.  All this week we’ll be looking at farming, and fishing to see what the deal means for businesses across the industry.
Today we speak to trade expert, Dmitry Grozoubinski, and the president of the National Farmers' Union President, Minette Batters.
The NFU says securing a deal was a positive step, but it’s warned that future trade with the EU will not be completely frictionless and will add cost for farmers. 
And we continue our week-long look at farm-generated energy, with biomethane.

Presented by Anna Hill and produced by Beatrice Fenton.

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