Great to meet with South Suffolk farmers & the National Farmers' Union at my latest farming surgery in Hadleigh. We discussed the introduction of ELMS; fairness in the supply chain; food security; & infrastructure including of course, pylons. I’ll be following up with DEFRA & the EA shortly.
Earlier this week Secretary of State Steve Barclay joined Sally-Ann Hart MP Huw Merriman MP and Hugh Broom in Sussex to hold a Q&A for farmers and local businesses as part of our ‘Defra Minister on Tour’ series 🚜
