-Hello and welcome to Ffermio. | 0:00:17 | 0:00:19 | |
-On this programme, we'll travel -all over Wales and beyond. | 0:00:20 | 0:00:24 | |
-We'll be focusing on the future... | 0:00:24 | 0:00:26 | |
-..by looking at politics, -new technology and children. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:30 | |
-Firstly, with less than a month to -go before the Assembly elections... | 0:00:31 | 0:00:35 | |
-..here's a taster -of what the different parties... | 0:00:35 | 0:00:39 | |
-..can offer the agricultural world -and rural Wales. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:42 | |
-Thursday 5 May | 0:00:49 | 0:00:51 | |
-On 5 May, we will decide -who governs in Cardiff Bay. | 0:00:54 | 0:01:00 | |
-But before we decide how to vote... | 0:01:02 | 0:01:04 | |
-..let's consider -what the parties have to offer. | 0:01:04 | 0:01:07 | |
-What do they promise people -who live and work in rural areas? | 0:01:08 | 0:01:11 | |
-Let's start with the Green Party. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:16 | |
-Their emphasis is on the animal - -both tame and wild. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:21 | |
-They want to reintroduce -vaccinations for badgers... | 0:01:21 | 0:01:25 | |
-..and have CCTV in all abattoirs. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:27 | |
-They also want stricter regulations -on transporting livestock... | 0:01:27 | 0:01:31 | |
-..and a ban on live exports. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:33 | |
-Wales Green Party believes farmers -have an important role to play... | 0:01:34 | 0:01:38 | |
-..in creating a sustainable future -for Wales. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:41 | |
-They can aid with the production -of clean energy, flood resistance... | 0:01:42 | 0:01:46 | |
-..carbon storage -and feeding our local communities. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:51 | |
-We need to have a dialogue -with farmers in Wales... | 0:01:51 | 0:01:55 | |
-..about how to create -a sustainable future. | 0:01:55 | 0:02:00 | |
-How can we ensure -that we have healthy food... | 0:02:00 | 0:02:03 | |
-..a sustainable society, -a safe environment... | 0:02:03 | 0:02:06 | |
-..and fair prices for farmers. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:08 | |
-What about the Liberal Democrats? | 0:02:09 | 0:02:11 | |
-They have three main promises. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:13 | |
-An annual fund of 20 million -for hill farmers... | 0:02:14 | 0:02:17 | |
-..to address the issues -of farming challenging land. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:21 | |
-There would be grants -to aid farmers to diversify... | 0:02:21 | 0:02:24 | |
-..reduce the amount of carbon -released into the environment... | 0:02:24 | 0:02:29 | |
-..and to be more competitive. | 0:02:29 | 0:02:30 | |
-They would also promote share -farming and succession planning. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:36 | |
-I think it's important to recognize -the importance of agriculture... | 0:02:38 | 0:02:42 | |
-..for rural areas. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:44 | |
-Not only in terms of the land... | 0:02:44 | 0:02:46 | |
-..but also in its contribution -to the Welsh language. | 0:02:46 | 0:02:50 | |
-We're keen to bring in -a specialist fund of 20 million... | 0:02:50 | 0:02:55 | |
-..for less favourable areas. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:59 | |
-We also want to do something -about the fact... | 0:02:59 | 0:03:02 | |
-..that young people find it hard -to start out in agriculture. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:07 | |
-Choosing local food -is very important. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:11 | |
-I hope that's true -of all politicians. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:13 | |
-It's a matter of personal choice. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:16 | |
-We must have clear labelling... | 0:03:17 | 0:03:20 | |
-..so that people -can make informed choices. | 0:03:20 | 0:03:24 | |
-But clearly, -there are a number of questions... | 0:03:25 | 0:03:28 | |
-..about how much of the supply chain -is in Wales. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:32 | |
-That's a matter over which -any new minister for farming... | 0:03:32 | 0:03:36 | |
-..will need to take action. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:37 | |
-If you decide to support -the Conservatives... | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
-..what is in their manifesto? | 0:03:42 | 0:03:44 | |
-They would appoint -a government minister... | 0:03:45 | 0:03:48 | |
-..with specific responsibility -for Mid and West Wales... | 0:03:48 | 0:03:51 | |
-..to promote rural communities. | 0:03:52 | 0:03:54 | |
-They would also consider rural areas -in all policy areas... | 0:03:54 | 0:03:57 | |
-..giving full support to -the dairy and red meat industries. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
-They would work with the Westminster -government to review the CAP. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:05 | |
-They would also cut taxes -and unnecessary red tape... | 0:04:06 | 0:04:10 | |
-..and they would help rural -communities to manage local assets. | 0:04:10 | 0:04:14 | |
-They would also maintain and improve -high welfare standards... | 0:04:14 | 0:04:18 | |
-..for animals in Wales. | 0:04:18 | 0:04:19 | |
-The Labour Party has been in power -for over 17 years in Cardiff. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:24 | |
-They seem to have forgotten -about Mid Wales and farming. | 0:04:25 | 0:04:29 | |
-It's so important -to have a Cabinet Minister... | 0:04:29 | 0:04:33 | |
-..in charge of farming -and the countryside. | 0:04:33 | 0:04:35 | |
-We need to make sure that -rural issues move up the agenda. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:39 | |
-One of the most important things -in farming at the moment is TB. | 0:04:40 | 0:04:46 | |
-We are dealing with TB in cattle... | 0:04:46 | 0:04:48 | |
-..but we are not addressing -the issue of TB in wildlife. | 0:04:48 | 0:04:52 | |
-We must listen to scientists -and deal with TB in wildlife... | 0:04:52 | 0:04:57 | |
-..in order -to eradicate the disease... | 0:04:57 | 0:05:00 | |
-..and ensure that Wales -is a TB-free zone. | 0:05:01 | 0:05:04 | |
-In terms of young people, it's -important that we support YFC clubs. | 0:05:04 | 0:05:09 | |
-They've suffered cuts to their -budgets over the last few years. | 0:05:10 | 0:05:15 | |
-We must support the YFC. There -is nothing similar in rural Wales. | 0:05:16 | 0:05:21 | |
-Only the YFC is able to pull -young people together to socialize. | 0:05:21 | 0:05:26 | |
-What does Plaid Cymru have to offer? | 0:05:28 | 0:05:32 | |
-In a series of points, they refer -to all aspects of rural life... | 0:05:33 | 0:05:37 | |
-..including the health and welfare -of animals and biosecurity. | 0:05:37 | 0:05:41 | |
-They suggest a package of measures -to eradicate TB... | 0:05:42 | 0:05:45 | |
-..and to keep TB-free zones -disease free. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:48 | |
-They would work with farmers... | 0:05:49 | 0:05:51 | |
-.to see if recording and reporting -sheep movements through EID... | 0:05:51 | 0:05:55 | |
-..is appropriate. | 0:05:56 | 0:05:57 | |
-They also refer to -Working Smarter... | 0:05:57 | 0:05:59 | |
-..including reducing red tape -and unnecessary paperwork. | 0:06:00 | 0:06:03 | |
-They refer to the future -of agriculture... | 0:06:04 | 0:06:07 | |
-..through mention of education, -access, renting... | 0:06:07 | 0:06:10 | |
-..share farming and succession. | 0:06:10 | 0:06:12 | |
-They also recognize the need -to work with the YFC. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:15 | |
-They commit to setting up -a veterinary school in Wales. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:19 | |
-There is a section about farming -and the food chain... | 0:06:19 | 0:06:22 | |
-..including the need -to reduce food waste. | 0:06:23 | 0:06:25 | |
-They also mention international -climate change targets. | 0:06:26 | 0:06:29 | |
-We need to ensure that rural areas -and the farming industry... | 0:06:30 | 0:06:34 | |
-..are given the voice they deserve -in the Welsh Government. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:38 | |
-That has not been the case -over the last five years. | 0:06:38 | 0:06:41 | |
-We have specific policies. | 0:06:41 | 0:06:43 | |
-We want to get rid of -the six-day standstill rule. | 0:06:43 | 0:06:46 | |
-The industry needs flexibility to -face the serious challenges ahead. | 0:06:46 | 0:06:51 | |
-We also want to ensure -that more Welsh produce... | 0:06:51 | 0:06:54 | |
-..is purchased by the public sector -in Wales. | 0:06:54 | 0:06:57 | |
-We also want to address the issue -of council farms... | 0:06:57 | 0:07:01 | |
-..which are being sold off -at the moment. | 0:07:01 | 0:07:04 | |
-We will introduce a strategy -to defend what is a national asset. | 0:07:04 | 0:07:09 | |
-This asset -could be used effectively... | 0:07:09 | 0:07:12 | |
-..in helping young farmers and -newcomers to come into the industry. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:16 | |
-In addition, we would not introduce -open access to rural Wales. | 0:07:16 | 0:07:22 | |
-This is something that has been -discussed by the current government. | 0:07:23 | 0:07:28 | |
-The latest addition -to the Assembly election is UKIP. | 0:07:30 | 0:07:33 | |
-What do they have to offer? | 0:07:33 | 0:07:35 | |
-They believe money is wasted -on the administration of subsidies. | 0:07:35 | 0:07:39 | |
-They also believe the UK -goes overboard with EU regulations. | 0:07:39 | 0:07:43 | |
-Central to their manifesto... | 0:07:43 | 0:07:45 | |
-..is the appointment -of local wildlife managers... | 0:07:45 | 0:07:48 | |
-..who would have the right -to operate according to local needs. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:52 | |
-They would be responsible -for reducing TB, for example. | 0:07:52 | 0:07:55 | |
-UKIP also note the need to -reconsider the policy on GM crops. | 0:07:55 | 0:07:59 | |
-They would also offer -mobile abattoirs... | 0:08:00 | 0:08:02 | |
-..to improve animal welfare -and reduce food miles. | 0:08:02 | 0:08:05 | |
-Their manifesto offers -a package of support for farmers... | 0:08:06 | 0:08:09 | |
-..as well as control over people's -rights to access the countryside. | 0:08:09 | 0:08:13 | |
-They emphasize the need -to make farming profitable... | 0:08:13 | 0:08:17 | |
-..and reduce red tape. | 0:08:17 | 0:08:18 | |
-We want to pull out -of the European Union. | 0:08:20 | 0:08:23 | |
-Welsh farmers need to see policies -based on their needs in Wales. | 0:08:23 | 0:08:29 | |
-We want the Assembly -to create agricultural policies... | 0:08:29 | 0:08:33 | |
-..for Welsh farmers. | 0:08:33 | 0:08:35 | |
-We have to ensure that farmers -receive a fair price for produce. | 0:08:36 | 0:08:39 | |
-They are running a business -and they have to make money. | 0:08:40 | 0:08:43 | |
-Supermarkets -have had too much power... | 0:08:43 | 0:08:46 | |
-..and the CAP system -has played into their hands. | 0:08:46 | 0:08:50 | |
-They've driven prices down. | 0:08:50 | 0:08:51 | |
-We definitely need to do something -about the prices farmers are paid. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:56 | |
-We must also get the TB situation -under control. | 0:08:57 | 0:09:00 | |
-During the next term, something -concrete needs to be done... | 0:09:00 | 0:09:05 | |
-..to get the situation -under control. | 0:09:05 | 0:09:08 | |
-Finally, what are the main points -in the Labour Party's manifesto? | 0:09:10 | 0:09:13 | |
-They have been in power -over the last five years. | 0:09:14 | 0:09:17 | |
-Their objectives are closely linked -to their Rural Development Plan... | 0:09:17 | 0:09:21 | |
-..which is already in action. | 0:09:21 | 0:09:23 | |
-They emphasize the need -to create employment... | 0:09:23 | 0:09:26 | |
-..and fair living standards. | 0:09:26 | 0:09:28 | |
-They also promise good public -services for local communities. | 0:09:28 | 0:09:32 | |
-The long-term aim is to create -a profitable food sector... | 0:09:32 | 0:09:36 | |
-..which respects animal welfare -and is managed professionally. | 0:09:36 | 0:09:39 | |
-There is a specific reference -to farm workers' pay... | 0:09:40 | 0:09:43 | |
-..and a reference -to managing natural resources... | 0:09:43 | 0:09:46 | |
-..to respond -to climate change targets. | 0:09:46 | 0:09:50 | |
-The government can do a lot. | 0:09:51 | 0:09:53 | |
-I hope the next government shows -more support for agriculture... | 0:09:53 | 0:09:57 | |
-..in general. | 0:09:57 | 0:09:59 | |
-There have been huge challenges -in the dairy industry. | 0:09:59 | 0:10:03 | |
-I want to see more direct support -for those farmers. | 0:10:03 | 0:10:07 | |
-They could receive financial support -to help them diversify. | 0:10:07 | 0:10:11 | |
-I also want to see much more help -for farmers... | 0:10:12 | 0:10:16 | |
-..with submitting paperwork. | 0:10:16 | 0:10:19 | |
-Many farmers have had huge -challenges with direct payments. | 0:10:19 | 0:10:25 | |
-They have also had problems when -trying to move stock between farms. | 0:10:25 | 0:10:29 | |
-There have been examples -in county councils... | 0:10:29 | 0:10:32 | |
-..where the local authority wants -to procure meat for its schools... | 0:10:32 | 0:10:37 | |
-..but they haven't used -local farmers. | 0:10:38 | 0:10:42 | |
-I certainly want to see -the government intervening... | 0:10:43 | 0:10:46 | |
-..to ensure we use local farmers -to provide food in our schools... | 0:10:46 | 0:10:51 | |
-..and throughout the public sector. | 0:10:51 | 0:10:53 | |
-Those are the main points -from the political manifestoes. | 0:10:57 | 0:11:00 | |
-Now the responsibility is on us -to vote on 5 May... | 0:11:01 | 0:11:04 | |
-..and take some control -over our fate. | 0:11:05 | 0:11:07 | |
-We have the power to decide -what comes out of the box. | 0:11:08 | 0:11:11 | |
-We must believe -that it will make a difference. | 0:11:11 | 0:11:15 | |
-That's it - an insight into the -parties' visions for agriculture. | 0:11:17 | 0:11:22 | |
-The responsibility is now yours -to use your vote in May. | 0:11:22 | 0:11:27 | |
-Before that, -we'll take a short break. | 0:11:27 | 0:11:30 | |
-Join us shortly when we'll -take a look at new technology... | 0:11:30 | 0:11:34 | |
-..and we'll see a group of farmers -from Glamorgan... | 0:11:34 | 0:11:37 | |
-..travel to London -to educate the next generation. | 0:11:38 | 0:11:40 | |
-See you in two minutes. | 0:11:41 | 0:11:42 | |

-Welcome back. | 0:11:54 | 0:11:55 | |
-This year has seen a change... | 0:11:56 | 0:11:58 | |
-..in the service that -Farming Connect offers to farmers. | 0:11:58 | 0:12:02 | |
-Daloni went to Llysfasi College Farm -near Ruthin... | 0:12:02 | 0:12:06 | |
-..to learn more -about these new schemes. | 0:12:06 | 0:12:09 | |
-Here at Llysfasi College Farm... | 0:12:11 | 0:12:14 | |
-..Farming Connect -has forged a new relationship. | 0:12:14 | 0:12:17 | |
-The emphasis is on innovation -and the latest technology. | 0:12:17 | 0:12:21 | |
-Technical officer Nia Jones -works with the college. | 0:12:22 | 0:12:27 | |
-We're lucky to have Llysfasi -as one of our pioneer sites. | 0:12:27 | 0:12:31 | |
-We have eight of them across Wales. | 0:12:31 | 0:12:33 | |
-Llysfasi will be home to some -of the innovation projects. | 0:12:34 | 0:12:38 | |
-We want to develop techniques and -pass them on to the next generation. | 0:12:38 | 0:12:42 | |
-Dewi Jones -is the farm manager at Llysfasi. | 0:12:43 | 0:12:46 | |
-He oversees the schemes -on a day-to-day basis. | 0:12:46 | 0:12:51 | |
-Among them is the lamb mortality -genetic evaluation project. | 0:12:51 | 0:12:56 | |
-Our aim is to keep as many of -our lambs alive as we possibly can. | 0:12:56 | 0:13:02 | |
-That's for both lambs born indoors, -and, as in this case... | 0:13:02 | 0:13:06 | |
-..the situation with mountain sheep, -lambing outside. | 0:13:06 | 0:13:10 | |
-It will be more of a challenge -to gather the data. | 0:13:10 | 0:13:15 | |
-Firstly, we have to be able -to identify the sheep. | 0:13:15 | 0:13:18 | |
-Every sheep is identified -by the EID tag by now. | 0:13:19 | 0:13:23 | |
-As we lead up to lambing... | 0:13:23 | 0:13:26 | |
-..we have weighed the sheep -and noted their condition score. | 0:13:26 | 0:13:31 | |
-We then have a database -of Welsh sheep. | 0:13:31 | 0:13:34 | |
-The lambs will be given EID tags -as they are born... | 0:13:34 | 0:13:38 | |
-..to link them to the mother. | 0:13:38 | 0:13:40 | |
-If we then lose a lamb, -it is taken for a post mortem. | 0:13:41 | 0:13:46 | |
-We want to know if that lamb -has actually breathed... | 0:13:47 | 0:13:51 | |
-..and if it has got up and suckled. | 0:13:51 | 0:13:54 | |
-They are two essential things -for lambs to survive. | 0:13:54 | 0:13:58 | |
-We can then link the lamb -that has gone for a post mortem... | 0:13:58 | 0:14:03 | |
-..with the ram that was used. | 0:14:03 | 0:14:06 | |
-We can see if it makes -a great difference... | 0:14:06 | 0:14:12 | |
-..to the value of the ram... | 0:14:12 | 0:14:15 | |
-..when it comes -to keeping the lambs alive. | 0:14:16 | 0:14:19 | |
-An overall difference of 1% -across the UK... | 0:14:20 | 0:14:23 | |
-..in keeping more lambs alive -is thought to be worth 12 million. | 0:14:23 | 0:14:28 | |
-It's an enormous amount of money. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:31 | |
-Can you explain the role of DNA -in the study? | 0:14:31 | 0:14:34 | |
-The role of DNA is key. | 0:14:34 | 0:14:37 | |
-It means we can link the lambs -in this case to the siring ram. | 0:14:37 | 0:14:43 | |
-But I can see it being used -in a wider context... | 0:14:43 | 0:14:47 | |
-..especially as techniques -like genomics develop. | 0:14:47 | 0:14:51 | |
-In years to come... | 0:14:51 | 0:14:53 | |
-..maybe we'll be able to look at -an individual ram's DNA profile... | 0:14:53 | 0:14:58 | |
-..or compare it -with those of other rams... | 0:14:58 | 0:15:01 | |
-..to see if there are markers -on the DNA... | 0:15:01 | 0:15:06 | |
-..that link to these lambs -that are lost at an early age. | 0:15:06 | 0:15:12 | |
-As well as this project... | 0:15:14 | 0:15:17 | |
-..Llysfasi is also part -of the Grass Value project... | 0:15:18 | 0:15:21 | |
-..which Nia Jones -has set up on various sites. | 0:15:21 | 0:15:24 | |
-What are the aims of this project? | 0:15:26 | 0:15:29 | |
-The main aims are to measure -and grow more grass, to be honest. | 0:15:29 | 0:15:34 | |
-It's hard to control anything -without measuring it. | 0:15:34 | 0:15:38 | |
-How do you do that? | 0:15:38 | 0:15:39 | |
-There are ten sites across Wales -involved in the project. | 0:15:40 | 0:15:44 | |
-Someone from each farm -will measure it for us weekly. | 0:15:44 | 0:15:48 | |
-They'll make a W shape -around the fields... | 0:15:48 | 0:15:51 | |
-..that have been chosen -for the sheep platform. | 0:15:52 | 0:15:55 | |
-We'll feed this information -into our software. | 0:15:55 | 0:15:59 | |
-That will help farmers -to decide how to manage the flock. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:02 | |
-What are the advantages -of managing pasture? | 0:16:03 | 0:16:05 | |
-You can make use of the pasture -when it's at its best. | 0:16:06 | 0:16:10 | |
-When it has good energy. | 0:16:10 | 0:16:12 | |
-In summer, there might be -too much grass in a field. | 0:16:12 | 0:16:16 | |
-There may be options -to close them off for silage. | 0:16:17 | 0:16:20 | |
-Options that don't waste the pasture -and use it to its maximum potential. | 0:16:21 | 0:16:26 | |
-The results will go -on the Farming Connect website. | 0:16:27 | 0:16:30 | |
-There'll be a map of pasture growth -updated every week... | 0:16:30 | 0:16:34 | |
-..to show farmers -the growth in their area. | 0:16:35 | 0:16:38 | |
-Blogs will also be posted, -consultants will lead discussions... | 0:16:39 | 0:16:44 | |
-..and we'll have -training sessions on the farms... | 0:16:44 | 0:16:48 | |
-..to show what to do, -and to demonstrate the advantages. | 0:16:48 | 0:16:52 | |
-How does Dewi hope -the students will benefit... | 0:16:54 | 0:16:57 | |
-..from the experimental work -at Llysfasi? | 0:16:58 | 0:17:00 | |
-The sole purpose -is to make the best use of pasture. | 0:17:00 | 0:17:04 | |
-Statistics show -that on many farms... | 0:17:04 | 0:17:07 | |
-..only half the pasture grown -is actually used. | 0:17:07 | 0:17:11 | |
-But on those farms -that manage pasture differently... | 0:17:11 | 0:17:14 | |
-..and perhaps in better ways, -80% of that pasture can be used. | 0:17:15 | 0:17:19 | |
-That's such an important resource, -because pasture and grass is cheap. | 0:17:19 | 0:17:25 | |
-Measuring has become -increasingly important. | 0:17:26 | 0:17:29 | |
-The technology is there to help us. | 0:17:29 | 0:17:32 | |
-Most of our students -are young people, of course. | 0:17:32 | 0:17:36 | |
-They buy into and see the value -of that technology very quickly. | 0:17:36 | 0:17:40 | |
-Farming Connect -is holding numerous events... | 0:17:44 | 0:17:48 | |
-..focusing on recovery -after the winter of 2015. | 0:17:48 | 0:17:52 | |
-More information about these events -can be found on their website. | 0:17:52 | 0:17:58 | |
-We've recently heard a lot... | 0:18:02 | 0:18:04 | |
-..about the importance -of marketing our produce... | 0:18:05 | 0:18:08 | |
-..and the valuable service -farmers provide. | 0:18:08 | 0:18:11 | |
-Recently, a group of farmers from -Glamorgan visited a London school... | 0:18:11 | 0:18:16 | |
-..to educate and plant the seeds -from a very young age. | 0:18:16 | 0:18:19 | |
-Pakeman Primary School -is in Holloway, north London. | 0:18:24 | 0:18:27 | |
-This is the site of a recent visit -by Glamorgan YFC and NFU members... | 0:18:28 | 0:18:33 | |
-..to introduce agriculture -to the school's 300 pupils. | 0:18:34 | 0:18:38 | |
-We've come here today to teach -a lesson about agriculture... | 0:18:39 | 0:18:44 | |
-..and to show children -where food comes from. | 0:18:45 | 0:18:48 | |
-The workshops -discuss growing crops... | 0:18:50 | 0:18:54 | |
-..eggs... | 0:18:54 | 0:18:56 | |
-..dairy cattle and milk... | 0:18:57 | 0:19:00 | |
-..lamb, fruit and vegetables. | 0:19:00 | 0:19:03 | |
-It's very important to educate them -about where their food comes from. | 0:19:05 | 0:19:10 | |
-I firmly believe that, -and not just in towns and cities. | 0:19:10 | 0:19:15 | |
-Even in rural areas, many people... | 0:19:15 | 0:19:17 | |
-..are far removed -from how food reaches their plates. | 0:19:17 | 0:19:21 | |
-It's nice to see them -learning where food comes from... | 0:19:22 | 0:19:25 | |
-..and what's good -and nutritious about it. | 0:19:26 | 0:19:29 | |
-We taught them -where cereals come from... | 0:19:41 | 0:19:45 | |
-..and where milk and eggs come from. | 0:19:45 | 0:19:48 | |
-We then got them to mix up -the ingredients and make pancakes. | 0:19:48 | 0:19:53 | |
-The reaction was great. | 0:19:53 | 0:19:55 | |
-They enjoyed it, and were excited -to see what we were doing. | 0:19:55 | 0:20:00 | |
-Everyone wanted to join in -and have a go. | 0:20:00 | 0:20:03 | |
-They were great kids. -They enjoyed it and learnt a lot. | 0:20:03 | 0:20:06 | |
-I could see -that they enjoyed learning. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:09 | |
-One of the boys said it was -one of the best days of the year. | 0:20:10 | 0:20:13 | |
-They're great, really good. | 0:20:13 | 0:20:15 | |
-As farmers, it's important -that we show what we do. | 0:20:16 | 0:20:20 | |
-That we grow food for people. | 0:20:20 | 0:20:22 | |
-To show them that, without farmers, -they couldn't eat three meals a day. | 0:20:23 | 0:20:28 | |
-These children live in a city. | 0:20:28 | 0:20:30 | |
-They don't see cattle, -sheep and chickens. | 0:20:30 | 0:20:34 | |
-It's important for them -to find out... | 0:20:34 | 0:20:36 | |
-..where the food -that goes to Tesco or Morrisons... | 0:20:37 | 0:20:41 | |
-..and then onto their plate -comes from. | 0:20:41 | 0:20:44 | |
-With sessions about wool, crops, -eggs, milk and planting seeds... | 0:20:44 | 0:20:49 | |
-..the children -clearly had a great day. | 0:20:49 | 0:20:52 | |
-Well, today is farming day... | 0:20:53 | 0:20:57 | |
-..to celebrate farmers -collecting crops for us to eat. | 0:20:57 | 0:21:02 | |
-I've enjoyed planting mint... | 0:21:04 | 0:21:07 | |
-..because I never knew -how to plant it before. | 0:21:07 | 0:21:12 | |
-I saw the hens... | 0:21:14 | 0:21:15 | |
-..and some chickens and some chicks. | 0:21:16 | 0:21:19 | |
-We've had so much fun today. | 0:21:20 | 0:21:23 | |
-My favourite animal in the farm... | 0:21:25 | 0:21:28 | |
-..um, is a chicken... | 0:21:28 | 0:21:30 | |
-..because of how it makes its sound. | 0:21:31 | 0:21:34 | |
-Cock-a-doodle-doo! | 0:21:35 | 0:21:37 | |
-The children enjoyed it... | 0:21:40 | 0:21:42 | |
-..but how do farmers benefit -by holding such a day? | 0:21:42 | 0:21:45 | |
-I'd like to see the curriculum -including more of it... | 0:21:46 | 0:21:51 | |
-..with children being taught -where their food comes from... | 0:21:52 | 0:21:56 | |
-..and what's important, you know, -about locally-sourced produce. | 0:21:57 | 0:22:03 | |
-Knowing where everything originates. | 0:22:03 | 0:22:06 | |
-That's what I'd like to see -coming out of a day like this. | 0:22:06 | 0:22:10 | |
-It's important for us -to come to places like London... | 0:22:10 | 0:22:16 | |
-..with no experience -of farmers or farms. | 0:22:16 | 0:22:20 | |
-We as farmers have a role... | 0:22:20 | 0:22:23 | |
-..to come here, teach them... | 0:22:23 | 0:22:27 | |
-..and help them to understand. | 0:22:27 | 0:22:30 | |
-Young farmers -also have a role to come here... | 0:22:30 | 0:22:33 | |
-..to promote the industry -in positive ways. | 0:22:33 | 0:22:36 | |
-The children -are so excited to see us. | 0:22:37 | 0:22:39 | |
-They've all had more than one go -at turning the mill. | 0:22:40 | 0:22:44 | |
-They're amazed -by how butter is made from cream. | 0:22:44 | 0:22:47 | |
-It's just been... | 0:22:48 | 0:22:49 | |
-One of them asked me -if I was a magician... | 0:22:49 | 0:22:53 | |
-..when I was milling the flour. | 0:22:53 | 0:22:55 | |
-They derived pleasure -from seeing it... | 0:22:56 | 0:22:58 | |
-..and I derived pleasure -from watching them learn. | 0:22:59 | 0:23:02 | |
-I wish every day was farming day. | 0:23:04 | 0:23:06 | |
-Those London children -clearly loved farming day. | 0:23:11 | 0:23:14 | |
-That shows the importance -of marketing our produce. | 0:23:15 | 0:23:18 | |
-That's all for this programme. | 0:23:18 | 0:23:21 | |
-We'll be back -at the same time next week. | 0:23:21 | 0:23:23 | |
-Until then, -thanks for your company. Goodbye. | 0:23:24 | 0:23:27 | |
