Gary Ford, East Anglia regional adviser for the National Farmers Union (NFU), said the recent trade deal agreed with Australia highlighted those longer-term concerns. That is a source of intense frustration and understandable anger, he said. We have got among the highest environmental and animal welfare standards in the world, but we know there are different standards operating in countries that we are about to enter into trade deals with. We are all for free trade agreements, because they do open opportunities for UK farmers. But it has got to be fair trade. There have got to be safeguards, and there has to be a level playing field.

NFU seeks farmers thoughts on Canada and Mexico trade deals
26 May 2021 |
Both Canada and Mexico represent important markets for UK agri-food goods, the NFU says
The NFU is seeking thoughts and concerns from farmers on the impact that future trade deals with Canada and Mexico could have on the industry.
The government has launched an eight-week consultation calling for views ahead of further trade talks with both countries.
When the UK secured roll-over trade agreements with Canada and Mexico in 2020, there was a commitment to begin talks for a further free trade agreement in 2021.
The NFU said it would like to gather input from farmers to inform its position.

The NFU has warned the Government to be mindful of the impact of free trade agreements with global agricultural powerhouses on UK farmers, as it seeks views ahead of trade talks with Canada and Mexico.
NFU chief EU exit and international trade adviser Gail Soutar said that both markets offer opportunities for UK farmers to export their high-quality produce, with Canada already an important market for UK dairy producers.
“Canada and Mexico are also among the 10 largest agricultural exporters in the world, sitting alongside the likes of Brazil, the USA and Australia,” Ms Soutar pointed commented .
“The government must therefore be particularly mindful of the cumulative impact negotiating free trade agreements with these global agricultural powerhouses will have on our farmers here in the UK. This is particularly relevant given reports that Australian exporters will be offered tariff-free, quota-free access to the UK market, putting severe pressure on domestic produce
