Synopsis

Over 90 per cent of dairy cows in the UK are the Holstein breed. But with increasing milk demands from fewer animals, Farming Today finds out what the future is for what has been called the 'Holstein milk machine'.

And how much wildlife can you buy for 400 million pounds? Charlotte Smith hears the latest plans to encourage farmers to be environmentally friendly.
