This is the title to the House of Lords Science and Technology Committee report that was published on 27 January 2022.

I was invited onto Steve Orchard's Farming Programme to give give a summary of the report and my thoughts on its significance. To listen ask your smart speaker to "play the latest Farming Programme" or follow the link below. The interview is about 2 minutes into the programme.
