Part of a series of digital discussion events being hosted by me for Borough Market.

Britain’s food and farming future in the post-Brexit era are set to be defined by the Agriculture Bill which is currently making its way through parliament.  Its system of subsidies designed to reward sustainability rather than scale may have a positive impact on farmers, retailers, the environment and the wider public, but many in the food world are hugely concerned about the Bill’s damaging impact in other areas. Our panel of experts from across the food industry - with expertise in farming, food policy, food production and more - will discuss positive aspects of the Bill alongside concerns that the legislation lacks a comprehensive national food plan and includes no guarantee that food imported from abroad will match the standards demanded of British producers.  The panel will consider the impact of these decisions if they go through, and the national campaigns taking place to try to amend the Bill’s course to protect our food future.
