AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

UK Drought & Food Security: Britain heads for a fifth heatwave, with 30C+ days already at record levels and forecasts near 36C, leaving farmers reporting sharply reduced yields and renewed food-security worries. Water Stress: Drought warnings are escalating, with fresh heatwave alerts raising the prospect of further water restrictions as creeks and low flows push catchments into crisis. Livestock & Disease Risk: Bluetongue remains a live threat, with vets urging vaccination and farmers watching for impacts on herds and forage. Farm Operations Under Pressure: A Herefordshire poultry producer is trialling a new air-blast sprayer for more controlled shed disinfection, reflecting how biosecurity demands are rising. Rural Policy & Rural Costs: A Highland MP is pushing for urgent ministerial focus after a report flags remote areas as “unviable,” citing higher living costs, weaker services and shrinking rural school rolls. Energy & Land Use: In Northern Ireland, farmers are set to protest a cattle cull, while wider UK debates continue over solar and renewable projects on farmland. Climate Signals Beyond Land: Scientists report record-hot seas and persistent heat across western Europe, underlining the broader climate backdrop hitting UK agriculture.
