Tarleton, Lancashire, UK. UK Weather. 27th March, 2017. Fine day for planting spring lettuce. The lettuces are planted using a satellite-guided automatic planter driven by a tracked tractor. Migrant workers feed the automated machine small plugs of the crops which will then be covered with agricultural fleece against any overnight frost until the risk has passed. Employees in this sector face an uncertain future with the imminent triggering of Article 50. Credit: MediaWorldImages/AlamyLiveNews
