In today’s episode, we savour the outstanding natural beauty on our doorstep and find out how local authorities are working hand-in-hand with farmers to both protect and make these picture-postcard landscapes more vibrant places to live, work and visit. Senior Park Conservation Officer for Yorkshire Dales National Park, Helen Keep tells all about the pioneering Farming in Protected Landscapes program.Sam Bradley of the NFU returns to our onsite veterinary practice - Craven Farm Vets - to discuss a recent increase in lungworm amongst local cattle, with Veterinary Surgeon Chris Bailey. And, following this week’s high profile opening seasonal sale of store lambs, which produced a much-improved overall selling average, we head to the ringside for the latest trade talk from CCM Junior Auctioneer, Kyle Hawksworth. Plus, CMM General Manager, Jeremy Eaton tells us what’s on at the auction in the coming weeks.  LINKS: https://www.ccmauctions.comhttp://cravenfarmvets.co.uk/https://www.nfuonline.com/http://yorkshiredales.org.uk The Farming Country Podcast. Episode presented by: Danielle DaggettEdited by: Danielle Daggett, Vernon HarwoodProduced by: Jeremy Eaton, Ted Ogden, Danielle Daggett Contributors: Helen Keep, Chris Bailey, Kyle Hawksworth, Sam Bradley.  Enquires to Danielle at [email protected] STREAM ALL EPISODES NOW ON SELECTED SERVICES: SPOTIFY - https://open.spotify.com/show/5aBdEBbqRUbq8JmjnbXTDsAPPLE - https://podcasts.apple.com/podcast/id1552436394GOOGLE - https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5idXp6c3Byb3V0LmNvbS8xNjE2NzczLnJzcw==YOUTUBE - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCskMRFEnJ0mXyaiDHUpgYzw
