NFU publishes key policy asks
The NFU publishes its policy asks ahead of the government’s consultation on a Land Use Framework.
The NFU is conscious that there are huge demands being made on land including the needs of agricultural production (food and non-food), for leisure and recreation, requirements for biodiversity net gain, protected landscapes, and the need for economic and residential development alongside national strategic infrastructure.
Given the finite land area of the UK, and the importance of UK food security in volatile times, we believe that it is important that our countryside remains a multifunctional and dynamic space.
