Just why is it taking so long for the UK government to set out its vision for farming?
As Defra secretary Emma Reynolds prepares to give her first major speech to farmers, vital reports and strategies remain unpublished.
The government says some will be published before Christmas - others later.
We ask incoming CLA president Gavin Lane what Emma Reynolds needs to say when she addresses this month's Country Land and Business Association conference.
We pay a visit to Agritechnica – Europe’s flagship farm machinery exhibition – to find out what's selling and what's not.
And hundreds of well-wishers pay their respects at a memorial service for Norfolk farmer and commentator David Richardson.
