BBC One - Countryfile, Harvest 2

Adam Henson and Sean Fletcher are back in the ‘breadbasket’ of East Anglia.

Adam Henson and Sean Fletcher are back in the ‘breadbasket’ of East Anglia as farmer Tom Martin learns if this year’s harvest has been a success.

Presenters Adam Henson and Sean Fletcher are back in the ‘breadbasket’ of East Anglia, where over a third of Britain's food is produced. Last time, Adam met arable farmer Tom Martin as he harvested his very first wheat crop of the year. Now, the grain testing results are in, and Tom finally learns if this year’s harvest has been a success.

Adam visits the megastructures designed to house vast volumes of wheat and explores the tech keeping pests and moisture from destroying high value stored crops.

Sean gets involved with a blueberry harvest and joins farmer Zoe Mee on her family farm to learn the trials and tribulations of growing the berries in the UK. With around 170 tonnes of fruit being picked per harvest, Sean encounters their diligent sorting machine, which uses multiple cameras to grade and sort every single blueberry destined for different supermarkets.

Charlotte Smith investigates a rise in rural crime and discovers a new wave of high-tech solutions being introduced to protect the farmers’ high value assets.

Back on Tom Martin’s farm, at the culmination of harvest, Adam joins the workers for a toast to celebrate the hard work and produce.

John Craven reveals the winner of the Countryfile photography competition, whose image will grace the front cover of the 2024 Countryfile Calendar.
