president vladimir putin, has accused nato of having imperial ambitions. and said its members had no interest in the well being of ukrainians. farmers across the uk are cutting back on food production, as they struggle with soaring costs, according to a study by the national farmers union. it found that a third of farmers say they re cutting back on crops, such as wheat, for food, because fertiliser has trebled in price. instead they are planning to grow wheat for animal feed because it needs less fertiliser. our business editor simonjack reports. if ukraine is the breadbasket of the world, lincolnshire is the breadbasket of britain. it produces one eighth of the uk s food, but there is a chill wind blowing through the farming industry. rising costs, labour shortages and pressure from supermarkets is causing a crisis of confidence. we ve got this massive shortage from ukraine and russia. andrew ward says a quadrupling of fertiliser prices mean his crop could be down this yea
