On 12 May, the Farming APPG heard from a panel of young farmers from a wide range of backgrounds. They offered their aspirations for the future of farming and perspectives on the government's current policies.

The speakers were: Abbie Allen, a beef and arable farmer from Leicestershire and farm advisor; Joe Bramall, from a Cheshire farm dairy and working at a farm machinery manufacturer; Alexandra Godfrey, current president of the students' union at the Royal Agricultural University; James Lunt, farm environment advisor based in Gloucestershire; and Melissa Walker, working on regenerative practices at a large mixed farming business on the Cambridgeshire and Lincolnshire border. 

Abbie, James and Melissa are part of the Emergent Generation network. Joe was supported by the NFU in attending.
