BBC World Service - World Business Report, Food supplies under pressure

Farmers are protesting about how much they get paid for the food they produce

Thousands of farmers in India and Europe are protesting about how much they get paid for the food they produce.

Our food supply chains are under pressure as thousands of farmers are marching in India to protest over how much they get paid for the food they produce. Sam Fenwick will be looking at what started this movement as farmers in Europe have also been raising their voices.

Meanwhile those delivering our foods say they're not paid enough either as they are planning not to work on Valentine's Day in the UK and the US.

And we find out if there is light at the end of the tunnel for US shoppers as the latest inflation data is out and we hear from a small business owner in New Jersey.
