Legislation that will unleash the potential of agriculture has passed into UK law today (11 November).
The Government's landmark Agriculture Bill was introduced to Parliament in January this year, providing a boost to industry after years of inefficient and overly bureaucratic policy dictated to farmers by the EU. The Bill will empower our farmers and land managers, and make sure that we can reward them properly for the good work that they do. The Bill will help farmers stay competitive, increase productivity, invest in new technology and seek a fairer return from the marketplace.
Beginning next year, farmers will have a seven year transition period to adapt to a new agricultural system.
