TFA

With the focus on landlord-tenant relationships at the NFU tenant conference, some farmers felt more needed to be done to tackle bad practice by landlords and their land agents

The code has been introduced at a time when tenants in the north of England are facing notices to quit by estates as a result of 'inheritance tax planning', as well as poor collaboration around the Landscape Recovery project

Farming families told Farmers Guardian of the emotional and financial toll they had faced gaining access to Universal Credit

TFA chief executive said the Minister had ‘clearly not caught up' with the details of the TFA survey which were submitted as part of their response to the Minister's own call for evidence from Defra, to inform whether a Tenant Farming Commissioner was necessary

Baroness Kate Rock, who led the Rock Review into tenant farming said she was disappointed, adding there was already 'sufficient evidence' to back the need for a Tenant Farming Commissioner

The Tenant Farmers Association said each week it was hearing from a ‘growing number' of farmers losing access to tenanted land or being told their Farm Business Tenancies would not be renewed
