Farmer says variety of crops has given his farm resilience
The weather has had an impact on farmers planting crops this year, but having variety on a farm can help minimise the impact.

Alan Radcliffe of Ballayockey Farm says his crops went in later than usual this year as a result of the rainfall.
But, he told Manx Radio's Countryside having different types of crops has lessened the effect:
