Survey: Markets and policy top farmers concerns for 2021

© AdobeStock/mreco Few in the farming industry, and in society at large, will forget 2020. As our Review of the Year in the previous issue of Farmers Weekly portrayed, it was both a year to remember and a year to forget – and that is very much the conclusion of our latest Sentiment Survey, conducted in November to assess farmers’ experiences of 2020, and their hopes for 2021. In total, almost 700 farmers took part, providing a comprehensive overview of the mood in the sector, across all enterprises and all parts of the country. Overall, the results show that, while one-quarter said their businesses had enjoyed a “good” or “great” year, a larger proportion – about one-third – described 2020 as either “bad” or “terrible”.
