For further details log onto ‘Health and Harmony: the future for food, farming and the environment in a Green Brexit’. . This is the key document on the future thoughts as to the direct and shape of the post Brexit. Responses need to be received by 8th May.
Tomas Pietrangeli, Managing Director of Arla Foods UK, commented:
“Today’s announcement provides welcome clarity for our farmer owners as to how the Government sees the future of agriculture in this country. We are pleased to see that the Environment Secretary intends to involve the industry in the process through consultation.
“Arla is already in consultation with its farmer owners over how today’s announcement will affect them. We look forward to continuing to engage with Government and policymakers as we work towards the future of agriculture in the UK.”
Whilst a 64 page Government document isn’t a top read in the normal course of circumstances its perhaps the one we all should study.
