About the episode

Lamb meat is becoming tougher to eat, as farmers seek to produce a leaner product. You'll hear from meat scientist Dr Peter McGilchrist.  The wool market is going through tough times at the moment and that’s being reflected in current merino ram sales. The plantation timber industry can’t keep up with the demand for timber for housing, so more and more land in Victoria is being planted to pine trees.  The Victorian Government has draft Animal Care and Protection Legislation that could effectively outlaw recreational fishing competitions.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
