Farming Rules for Water

The Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee public evidence session

Written by Lee Murphy. First published on 7 Dec 2021, and most recently revised on 10 Dec 2021.

The Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee will be holding a public evidence session on January 11 on the Farming Rules for water, regarding the interpretation of Rule 1 and the application of manures in the autumn.

The Committee asked for written submissions to be sent in by December 10 and the CLA is among those to have responded.

We are encouraging members to continue to provide case studies that demonstrate the impact of these changes. Contact CLA East Rural Adviser Rachel Brooks. There is also a template letter you can use to raise the issue with your MP.
