The Government should be doing more to co-ordinate the response to bird flu in wild birds - that's according to wildlife experts dealing with the outbreak in East Anglia. Marine and Wildlife rescue have been out on the Norfolk broads finding severely ill swans, but say the response has been left to local people to organise.

What impact might lab grown meat have on the farming industry? We hear how a new programme lead by The Royal Agricultural University hopes to answer that question.

All this week we'll be focusing on education, and today we discuss the future for the UK's land based colleges. These are the places offering courses in agriculture, horticulture, equine studies and forestry.

Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
