AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Drought & cashflow pressure: The NFU welcomed the UK’s £65m drought relief package but warned of a “huge crisis of cashflow”, with early harvests, historically low yields and failing field crops pushing farmers to use winter feed and on-site water storage. Water & wildfire response: South Wales Fire and Rescue requested military aid as around 200 troops supported wildfire logistics, including water distribution and firebreak work, while crews tackled multiple large blazes. Livestock disease watch: Scotland confirmed a first bovine case of bluetongue (BTV-3) near Dumfries and Galloway, with vaccination supply concerns and advice to order through vets due to a possible four-week lead time. Farm support schemes (NI): DAERA reminded Northern Ireland farms to apply online for the Sustainable Farming Investment Scheme before 3 September 2026. Supply chain & ports: ADM is expanding feed logistics at Port of Greenock to strengthen Scotland’s agricultural import handling along the River Clyde. Animal welfare rules: A dispute resurfaced over non-stun slaughter, after the FSA said it found “no clear evidence” of welfare breaches being more likely than with stunned slaughter.
