Caz Graham hears that more than a dozen people have fallen ill after visiting a farm park in Wales. Public health officials are investigating an outbreak of cryptosporidium in Wrexham.
And plans have been submitted for a large-scale pig farm in Derbyshire that will, if given the go-ahead, be one of the biggest pig farms in the UK. But Caz Graham hears claims from the organic group the Soil Association that these large-scale farms could mean bad news for family farming in the UK. But the National Pig Association disagree; insist that large farms can result in good animals welfare, and are good news for the British pig industry.
Presented by Caz Graham and produced by Martin Poyntz-Roberts.
