A topic often neglected by humans, but vitally important to the animals involved - ethical farming. Caroline Rowley, of Ethical Farming Ireland, talks about the many issues that concern the organisation - dairy farming systems, live export, pig welfare and the climate effects of farming.

And why it's so important to be aware of where our food comes from.
