Devolved farming lobbies react to amendments to the withdrawal agreement

Farming Today

Last night MPs spent the evening voting on a series of amendments to the Prime Minister's Withdrawal Agreement. They voiced their determination to avoid a No Deal, and agreed the backstop must be replaced by 'alternative arrangements', in some form. Mrs May told the House there was 'now a route for a deal', and pledged to bring the EU back to the negotiating table. So where does that leave UK farmers? Anna Hill gets the reaction of the National Farmers Union Scotland, the National Farmers Union Cymru and the Ulster Farmers Union; while Julie Robinson, head of agriculture at Roythornes Solicitors, outlines the legal situation. Meanwhile in Fife, Nancy Nicolson looks at the lack of regulation around medication for farmed deer.
