Sybil Ruscoe goes Back to the Future on a mixed farm in Somerset, to find out how some farmers are moving their businesses forward by learning from the past.

Farmer, Fred Price, has turned his family arable farm around by introducing forage-fed pigs and perennial crops into his rotation. He has reduced his use of agri-chemicals and started growing heritage grains. He makes it pay by selling direct to restaurants, butchers and bakers.

We also hear from an organic cattle breeder who says mimicking ancient natural grazing patterns is a healthier and more efficient way of feeding cattle...as well as being better for the environment.

We visit a farm in Wales where they have reinstated a medieval system of strip farming and hear about how plant breeders are using wild potato varieties to solve future problems.
