Farmers need key role in water management – NFU >More in © Phil Rees/Shutterstock Widespread winter flooding has once again highlighted the urgent need for a national strategy which gives farmers a key role in water management, say industry leaders. Large areas of farmland were once again left under water this week as heavy rain caused swollen rivers and watercourses to burst their banks. Northern England and Wales were among the areas worst hit – although other regions have also suffered. Unsettled conditions look likely to dominate during early February, with low pressure across the UK, the Met Office says. This should bring changeable weather to most of the country, with periods of rain, showers and strong winds at times.
