A new report finds farming leaders in Scotland must do more to call out racist, misogynistic and homophobic language from union members.

We hear about the would-be farmers competing for a tenancy on national TV.

And we speak to The Crown Estate about its new rural strategy. It's one of the country's biggest landlords, with over 300 tenant farmers across over 200,000 acres. As part of the estate's new approach, tenants are being offered 'environmental farm business tenancies' or green leases.
