The webinar this year takes place at 8.45am on Wednesday 24 February and the subject is food security.
On the panel will be NFU President Peter Kendall, Katherine Sealy (NFYFC chairman) and Sir Gordon Conway - Professor at the International Development Centre for Environmental Policy. Over 200 delegates have signed up already to be there on the day but we're also inviting people to watch live. Last year many colleges set up a room for students to view the debate - and we invite you to do this again. We also want you to email in your questions live, so perhaps having a nominated question taker/typer would help. Just follow the link above, read the on-screen instructions and have your say.
We look forward to seeing your questions.
