There are growing calls for school children to learn about farming and food production as a core element of the national curriculum. Currently, farm visits are optional and dependant on the willingness of the school or the local authority. Charlotte Smith hears from researchers who say that farming could be used to teach a wide range of subjects, including maths, science, geography and history.
