## Resource

How do you like your eggs? Brown or white? Sainsbury's has announced it's switching to white eggs for environmental reasons. With high prices for energy and fertiliser but not for their crops, and after another dry spring, we ask how arable farmers in the UK are doing. Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
