Commissioner Hogan, one of the most influential figures in European farming, has accepted an invitation from Mr Raymond to join him as a guest at the show - the Commissioner was also guest of honour at the Devon Farm Business Awards presentation dinner on Wednesday evening.
The question and answer session in the NFU marquee will start at 10.30am. There will also be the opportunity to discuss agricultural issues with the NFU President at 3pm. Members are invited to join us for complimentary drinks throughout the show – hot and cold food will also be available as usual
Melanie Squires, regional director for the NFU in the South West, said: “We will be taking the opportunity to show the Commissioner just how many other businesses and allied trades depend on a thriving farming sector for their own survival.”
