For many generations the rich pasturelands of Somerset have sustained a simple sequence of dairy farming. Cows produce milk, curds become cheese, whey feeds pigs, pigs become bacon, pig-muck feeds grass, cows produce milk... In this outside broadcast from Ditcheat, near Shepton Mallet, Joe Henson takes Bernard Price to meet Jack Barber, son Paul and nephew Nick. The Barber family still work the traditional dairy cycle but it's now big business. Down on Maryland Farm, 25,000 gallons of milk become ten tons of cheese every working day.
