January 13: Farming in Five: Efra committee inquiry on animal and plant health follows confirmed case of foot-and-mouth disease in Germany

In today's Farming in Five, chief reporter Rachael Brown reports on the confirmed case of foot-and-mouth disease in Germany. Meanwhile, the Efra Committee has called for an inquiry into animal and plant health which will focus on biosecurity at the border. The National Pig Association hopes the inquiry will apply pressure on the relevant Government departments to ‘effect the change so desperately needed.’ Elsewhere, Morrisons becomes the first supermarket to show public support for farmers in the fight against proposed changes to Inheritance Tax.
