Charlotte Smith meets pig farmers protesting at Downing Street. The National Pig Association claims that supermarkets are paying farmers too little for pork, and that farmers will be forced out of business as a result. But Andrew Opie of the British Retail Consortium tells Farming Today that supermarkets are being fair, and that if they push prices up in the shops, pork sales will fall.

And with 6 out of 10 family farms running another business alongside their farm, Charlotte Smith asks whether big business should step in and take over. A trip to a farm in Worcestershire illustrates how diversifying can help make small family farms pay, and Dr Matt Lobley, from the University of Exeter, explains that the demise of family farms has been predicted for decades, but the family model is resilient enough to survive.
