Horticulture
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what assessment he has made of the potential merits of implementing the Environmental Horticulture Group's recommendations from its report entitled Mission Green Growth: A Strategic Plan from the Environmental Horticulture Group, published in autumn 2024.
Answered by Daniel Zeichner
The Government appreciates and values the vital work of our agricultural sectors including the part played by environmental horticulture growers.
The Department regularly meets the Environmental Horticulture Group, as well as a wide range of stakeholders and businesses to discuss specific issues facing the sector. These discussions help inform future policy development and help us understand what support the sector needs to help it thrive.
In addition, we work across Government to ensure other Government departments are aware of the excellent report.
