Having attended more than 12 shows across Devon, we’ve had a fantastic few months travelling to all corners of the county, meeting members and enjoying some great conversations along the way.
A huge thank you goes to our local NFU group secretaries for their hard work, support and outstanding hospitality throughout the summer. Their efforts helped make each event a real success and provided a wonderful welcome for members at every show.
As we look ahead to autumn, we are preparing for another busy and exciting period. This includes our annual stakeholder farm visit, where we will welcome councillors and key local stakeholders onto farm to showcase both the challenges and opportunities facing the industry. The event will provide a valuable opportunity to discuss how we can work together to support our members and the industry going forward.
Alongside this, we will once again be attending Farmwise 2026 at Westpoint Arena, a fantastic event that welcomes hundreds of primary school children from across the County. The event offers a unique opportunity to educate young people about farming, where their food comes from, and the vital role agriculture plays in producing the food they eat.
