Jonathan Brant is standing for the position of NFU Vice President.
I am a third-generation family farmer in the Lincolnshire Wolds, growing 275 acres of combinable crops, with 130 acres of permanent pasture supporting a herd of Lincoln Reds.
Having served as branch and country chairman, I am presently council delegate for Lincolnshire and member of the regional livestock board.
I particularly enjoy meeting members, listening to their thoughts and ideas and representing them at national level. I am passionate about the industry, and not afraid to express my opinion to bring about a positive result.
During my time as county chairman I introduced new ideas and brought considerable energy to NFU activities and feel confident stepping up to a higher level.
As Vice President, I will bring an open, practical and hands-on approach. I am determined to see our union, through its members, where it belongs – at the forefront of promoting our strong farming future.
