The UK is vulnerable to animal diseases because of the ongoing trade in illegal meat, according to the Chartered Institute of Environmental Health. The CIEH says that a lack of proper inspections at UK borders makes it easy for criminals to bring meat in.

We visit a couple of fruit farms in Herefordshire to find out how they encourage the insects that pollinate their crops.

And although agriculture is devolved, so farm policy in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland won't be decided by the General Election, the budget is set by Westminster...and that's being discussed on the campaign trail across the UK.

Presented by Charlotte Smith Produced for BBC Audio in Bristol by Heather Simons
