We look at what the food security promises made by Rishi Sunak – the UK's third Prime Minister in just seven weeks – mean for farmers.
Can the government really strike the right balance between boosting food production and looking after for the environment?
On the markets, we look at why diesel is so stubbornly expensive.
Why some experts want to make it easier to breed cows without horns – and how it will benefit beef and dairy producers.
And it's a pumpkin bonanza – how UK farmers are cashing in on the craze for Halloween more than ever before.
