On Air at Groundswell: Feeding the nation and making it healthy - why aren't British farmers seen as part of the solution?

The NHS, the health of the nation and the role farmers play in providing food for the public sector is a hot topic of conversation, and in this episode, which is part of a special podcast series brought to you by the School of Sustainable Food and Farming at Harper Adams University, we look at the connection between farmers, food and health. How can we get more British produce in hospitals and schools? Does the country's shopping habits need to change? Do farming methods change the nutritional value of food? Ed Brown, head of farming at WildFarmed, Rosa Holt, a nutritionist and Emily Linton, a vet, discuss all of this.
