A YORK law firm is partnering with the CLA at this week’s Great Yorkshire Show to give an insight into some of the key legal challenges facing rural businesses
Langleys Solicitors is jointly hosting a drinks reception in the CLA enclosure at the Harrogate showground tomorrow, when the firm’s chairman and agriculture partner, Andrew Fearn, will be speaking.
Mr Fearn said: “The industry will be concerned about the transition between the Basic Payment Scheme under the EU’s Common Agricultural Policy and a new UK-based scheme coupled with the ability of Defra to deliver it.
“Another key area for the rural industry is generational succession in difficult economic times.”
The event will also see the CLA’s president, Ross Murray, launch the association’s Rural Business 2030 Campaign, which will bring businesses and policy makers together to discuss practical ways to achieve the vision of a robust, productive and sustainable rural economy.
