Agriculture: Environment Protection
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what plans his Department has to increase funding for nature-friendly farming.
Answered by Daniel Zeichner
We remain committed to investing £5 billion of funding in the farming budget over two years and are on track to do so. This is the highest budget for sustainable food production and nature’s recovery in our history.
Spending on farming in future financial years will be confirmed as part of the government’s spending review.
