New compulsory medical tests for fishermen: a leap forward for safety at sea or an over-rigid interpretation of the law that could devastate the inshore fishing fleet? According to the Forestry Commission, on average 30 per cent of newly planted trees in towns and cities will not survive more than 12 months. Foresters says they’re on the verge of going bust because of delays to tree-planting contracts. Broadcaster Vanessa Feltz takes a trip to Kent to visit Sadeh, a seven-acre Jewish market garden and environmental community, which runs educational events exploring the links between Judaism and food production. Presented by Caz Graham and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
