Scottish farmers claim millions of pounds of losses due to floods
Scottish farmers say last weekend's flooding has resulted in some of the biggest losses in food crops the industry has ever seen. NFU Scotland said millions of pounds worth of unharvested vegetables have been damaged by flood waters described as unprecedented for the time of year. The union says tight profit margins mean many will not be able to absorb the significant losses.
