The Climate Change Committee has published its annual report. The independent body, set up to scrutinise government progress towards net zero, says that it's less confident that the government will meet its goals, than it was a year ago.
MPs on the Environment Food and Rural Affairs committee have been drilling down into Baroness Rock's report into tenant farming which was published last October. It's estimated that 64% of farmland in England is rented. Baroness Rock told the committee that there's an unbalanced power dynamic between tenant farmers and their landlords and that plans for an independent commissioner to help tenant farmers are still some way off.
All week we're taking a closer look at the breakfast bacon buttie - and finding out about how that bacon gets on our plates. We've heard about breeding and rearing pigs for bacon, today we speak to buyers at a pig market in Somerset.
