Cattle slaughter age, Easter food trends and swimming pools of milk
Tom's joined by AHDB Senior Analyst Becky Smith to discuss the trends of cattle slaughter ages in GB, with dairy-beef generally finishing later than suckler-bred animals.
Charlotte runs through her review of Easter looking, in part, at how beef and lamb fared.
And Hannah's question about how many Olympic-sized swimming pools of milk we produced last year is answered. Let's just say it's quite a few!
