1500 farmers from across England and Wales have gathered in Birmingham for the National Farmers' Union annual conference. President Minette Batters is standing down after six years at the helm, and Prime Minister Rishi Sunak told farmers "I've got your back". He arrived with a raft of announcements including an annual national food security index, measuring the amount of food grown in the UK, a review of transparency in the poultry supply chain, an annual "farm to fork" summit in Downing Street, and increasing payments for managing environmental agreements.

Presented by Anna Hill and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
