Sybil Ruscoe hears from the Scottish tenant farmers who're being forced off their farm today. BBC Scotland Editor, Sarah Smith, explains why the Patersons on the Isle of Arran have to go. It's due to an anomaly in a law passed in 2003, and seven other tenant farmers will be forced out in the future.
All this week, Farming Today's looking at the pig industry. Alistair Driver, editor of Pig World, gives his view of the key issues the sector's currently facing, with markets and prices being uppermost.
Presented by Sybil Ruscoe and produced by Mark Smalley.
