The reforms to Agricultural Property Relief will be used to 'invest in our schools and health services that farmers and families in rural communities rely on'

This week's opinion from throughout the world of agriculture: East Yorkshire pig farmer Anna Longthorp

"There will be a need for a rapid and concerted effort from the leaders in the rural and farming sectors to hold the Government to account on ensuring that the gulf between urban and rural support does not become even wider"

"I wonder what people who are struggling to feed their families think when they hear the Conservatives crying foul over policies which protect people (farmers) from paying tax on assets worth up to £3 million in certain areas"

"For generations, farming families have served to grow food for us all. They are a service to their country and they are custodians of the countryside"

Speaking to ²ÝÁñÉçÇø Guardian, NFU President Tom Bradshaw shared his reaction following the Farming Minister Daniel Zeichner's address to delegates at AIC conference today (November 13)

"I am totally committed to supporting our farmers"

"I know this is already having a chilling effect on farming and rural businesses"
