CLA supports County Farms statement The CLA today (Friday, 14 November) fully supports a statement released by Sir Don Curry on County Farms. The statement outlines that County Farms are as crucial to the rural economy today as they were 100 years ago, and provides recommendations for local authorities.
CLA President Henry Aubrey-Fletcher said: "The CLA supports the sustainable management of 'County Farms' estates. At a time of great volatility for farming businesses, it is more important than ever that a range of different routes into farming is maintained as the pressure grows to produce more food and to do so more sustainably.
"We are particularly encouraged by Sir Don's belief that local authorities need to make a greater effort to develop the wider benefits that their land could provide such as renewable energy, public access, education, employment and local food. All are areas in which the CLA lobbies for the strength of the rural economy."
