The Food Programme

Available for over a year

Sheila Dillon finds out what happened when, inspired by a previous programme on the decline of Sicily's citrus industry, some of the farmers involved decided to travel to a trade fair in London with an articulated lorry containing 73,000 oranges, with the aim of trying to save the island's citrus groves.
