Baroness Hayman of Ullock (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 18 March 2025

Debate

Sustainable Farming Incentive

Contribution

The noble Baroness makes a really good point about the increasing intensification of farming, and that is something we do not want to see. Our focus has to be on high-quality sustainable food that we can buy locally, and on farmers being able to support the country. We said in our manifesto, “food security is national security” and that is very true. It is incumbent on us as the Government to look at how we deliver on that promise.
