Border post facilities set up since Brexit to handle import checks could now be scaled down or even dismantled. The UK's new deal with the EU promises progress towards an agreement to reduce the paperwork and border checks involved in trading foods like meat and dairy. It also includes a deal on fishing which would allow EU boats to fish in British waters for a further 12 years. The Scottish Fishermen's Federation has called it "a horror show", but the DEFRA Secretary, Steve Reed, says it's a "reasonably good deal" for UK fishing.In its manifesto the Labour party promised to end what it described as “the ineffective badger cull". The Government now says it's working on a revised TB eradication strategy, which includes increased badger vaccination and a national wildlife surveillance programme to better understand the disease. So how much difference could that make?And a new set of targets to tackle climate change have been recommended to Scottish Government ministers, replacing those scrapped last year. A report from the Climate Change Committee suggests effectively delaying short term progress by six years, but keeping Scotland on track to meet its long-term goal of net zero emissions by 2045.Presented by Anna Hill Produced by Heather Simons

The farmer and Liberal Democrat MP discusses Defra and why, despite current policies, he does not believe Labour ministers Daniel Zeichner and Steve Reed set out to harm farming. Instead, he says the problem lies with the Treasury and that while the campaign to reverse or amend the family farm tax may be long, farmers must keep campaigning."When it comes to going the ‘full French' I would say keeping public opinion on our side is very important and I would be really anxious about anything which risked alienating the rest of the public... The Government has pushed us into a corner and we have to keep pushing back."I do not think there is a silver bullet in this. But I think the thing we do have is an advantage in this battle is the length of it. We will not be voting until October/November on this and that is a long time for any government to double down."We have to just keep fighting and keep doing, and keep doing it again after that. If there was a silver bullet here, I would find it and I would fire it."Message us

Farming Today This Week comes from Oxford where two big conferences have been taking place: the Oxford Farming Conference and the Oxford Real Farming Conference. The first is traditionally seen as attended by the established and larger farms, and the Real Farming Conference has wider scope with more smaller farms, organic producers and artisan food producers. Both together represent UK farming as a whole.A convoy of tractors and farmers with placards staged a protest in Oxford City Centre as Defra Secretary Steve Reed gave his speech to the Oxford Farming Conference. They're angry at plans to change the rules around inheritance tax. This wasn't the focus of Steve Reed's speech; instead he promised a plan for change. He told delegates this must have three things: food production at its core, diversification of income, and restoration of nature as part of farming. He also announced speeding up the planning process for farm buildings. Agriculture's a devolved issue, and farming ministers for the devolved nations gave speeches about what's happening in Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales.We also report from The Oxford Real Farming Conference, where have similar concerns about the future of their businesses. We speak to the manager, interview an upland farmer about whole farm profitability, and drop in on a session about inheritance tax.Presenter = Anna Hill Producer = Rebecca Rooney
With tractors protesting outside the Oxford Farming Conference, what will the Defra Secretary say to farmers? Inheritance tax wasn't the focus of Steve Reed's speech, instead he promised a Plan for Change. He told delegates this must have three things: food production at its core, diversification of income, and restoration of nature as part of farming. He also announced speeding up the planning process for farm buildings. In contrast to the more established OFC which has been representing the industry since 1936, the Real Farming Conference, which started 15 years ago, attracts a huge range of farming enterprises. Its conference has 2000 delegates meeting across 19 venues, and has wider scope with more smaller farms, organic and artisan food producers. But the farmers there have similar concerns about the future of their businesses. Presented by Anna Hill and produced by Beatrice Fenton.

The budget for agriculture in Scotland comes from the UK Government - but as of two weeks ago, it's no longer ring fenced. The change has attracted criticism from farming groups. But the DEFRA Secretary, Steve Reed, has defended the decision, saying his Government believes in devolution, and that comes with the power to decide where money is spent. We hear from Scotland's Rural Affairs Cabinet Secretary, Mairi Gougeon.A change to the Suckler Support Scheme in Scotland aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by making calf production more intensive. It's being introduced as part of the country's new Agriculture Act, and it's rooted in the idea that more efficient beef farming means less carbon and less methane. Some beef farmers, however, fear it could have an impact on animal welfare as well as some farm incomes.And "Farmer Time" is an initiative set up by Cambridgeshire farmer, Tom Martin, which connects teachers with farmers, so children can have regular catch ups with a farmer.

The DEFRA Secretary has defended the Government's decision to introduce inheritance tax on agricultural assets. Steve Reed tells Anna Hill the wealthiest landowners and farmers "can afford to contribute more". It comes after inheritance tax of 20% is being brought in for farms with £2 million or more of assets. Some farmers are angry - concerned it will mean that when a farmer dies, their family will have to sell some of all of their land to pay the tax.And we visit an autumn sheep sale in Cumbria to hear why upland and hill farmers are worried about the future, despite a buoyant sheep market.Presented by Anna Hill Produced by Heather Simons
Labour's first Budget for 14 years will be delivered by the Chancellor Rachel Reeves today. The treasury's confirmed a 6.7% increase in the national living wage for UK workers over the age of 21 and the national minimum wage for those aged between 18 and 20 will also rise by £1.40 per hour. It's one decision that could impact farming businesses. We look at what other potential announcements could mean for agriculture and the environment.The government's set out new criteria for meeting nature conservation targets. Environment secretary Steve Reed made the announcement at the COP16 biodviersity summit in Columbia. He renewed the pledge to protect 30 per cent of land and sea for nature by 2030. However the government's said it's had to revise its estimate of how much land in England currently qualifies for those targets - it's not as much as it thought. Sites of Special Scientific Interest will only count when they're in a favourable or recovering condition.All week we've been unearthing stories of farms that are paying close attention to the health of their soils. Today we hear from a dairy farmer in west Wales who's turned his back on what he describes as a 'traditional farming system' to take a more ecological approach, working from the ground up. It's almost Halloween and for some farmers, pumpkin picking has become an important diversification but bad weather has ruined the harvest in parts of the country this year. One grower in Cheshire had to cancel his pumpkin festival, which accounts for half the farm's annual income. However the family's turned to its orchards and is holding an apple festival instead.Presenter = Steffan Messenger Producer = Rebecca Rooney
Donald Trump's campaign has filed a Federal Election Commission complaint against - what sorry - the Labour party, accusing it of 'blatant foreign interference', for allowing volunteers to door knock in swing states for Kamala Harris.The story either goes back to a linked in post by a labour staffer offering volunteers free accommodation in North Carolina, or it goes back to a longer standing row that Trump's mate Elon Musk has with Keir Starmer.Farage is out of the traps calling it an 'insult' to an incoming Trump administration. Labour is calling Farage a pot, or a kettle, and pointing to the efforts Farage has made over 8 years to get Trump into power. Later in the show we ask whether labour are prepared to send water company bosses to jail.

The government is bringing in new laws which will see stiffer penalties for water companies and possible jail sentences for their bosses if they don't deal with sewage problems. The environment secretary, Steve Reed, chaired a meeting attended by the water industry, investors and campaigners where he announced a landmark review into how the industry works. Niall Patterson spoke to our business correspondent, Paul Kelso, who was there for his assessment of what it could mean for the companies and bill payers. Plus, as the police investigating the Grenfell Tower fire warn it could be at least a year until they hand over evidence to prosecutors, Niall speaks to Chris Daw KC, author of Justice On Trial, on why it is going to take so long for the survivors and bereaved families to get justice.

Since the early 1900's the Walnut Street property has housed schools and now apartments. Jeb Stuart the President of the Board of Directors of the Historic Harrisburg Association says the building means so much to so many people. "Well, it was a landmark, and, and had a lot of history. There are a lot of alumni from old tech, as it was called, and there was the Tech Golden Legion, which resolved the alumni association of a lot of folks and met in Harrisburg. They had gone there. So there was kind of, you know, a feeling about the history that was important. But above and beyond that, it was, a significant building architecturally, a sound building, and had a lot of architectural character." The structured was a technical school for boys in Harrisburg around 1910, before the building became the Old City Hall building. "There are two parts to it. The original part of the building was built around 19 four, 1905, which is the the back part, the brick part of the building and the main part of the building, which people see today along Walnut Street, was completed in 1911. And the English Collegiate style is really a cool building architecturally, and it served for many years as the technical high school, which was really the principal downtown high school for boys. And it was, fulfilled that role until the mid 1920s, actually until 1927, when John Harris High School, and the eastern end of the city and William Penn High School at the northern end of the city were completed, which kind of consolidated all what were schools in the downtown area and the new two new, very large campuses that we all know to this day. When that happened, old City Hall became, renovated as the site for city government and became city hall. And it served that purpose, starting in 1927, all the way up until the new city hall was completed on Market Square in the early 1980s." Stuart even worked as a city clerk in the Old City Hall building when it was located on Walnut Street. " I was city clerk to Harrisburg City Council at the time, and council chambers was on the second floor, and my office was on the second floor. And, I spent many interesting sessions with city council and, of course, the general public coming in, for one reason or another. And I knew, many of the folks in City Hall at the time I started in the city planning Bureau, which was on the second floor. And that's that that was the time that we started to, inventory and create the municipal historic districts in the downtown. So it was an interesting time, at least for me, and also for the city in general, and trying to to coordinate the value of historic preservation efforts through the historic district creation and also marry that with the goals of the Harristown Plan in terms of the development of the central business district. When word came out that the building was going to be vacated, for, the new building on Market Square. I think a lot of people accepted that, understood why that was happening. Understood it was part of a broader mission and a broader goal. But it was interesting in that there was the Harrisburg City Archives, all the documents, all the ledgers, everything, all the photography of the city's history was located in and the old City Hall building. And I remember when it was being cleaned out, for the move to the new one. The mayor at that time, Steve Reed, was very, aggressive in stopping the, removal of those archives because at that time they thought, well, it was just paper. And, you know, we have to get rid of all this stuff. Nope, nope. He was able to save that. And those archives, thankfully, have been preserved over the years and are now, part of the Pennsylvania State Archives headquarters facility on North sixth Street and can be accessed by the general public."
