20 Mar 2026 Food for thought - Shaping sustainable farming futures

A new report from HCR Law examines the future of British food security.   Featuring insights from their Agriculture and Estates team and leading industry voices, Food for Thought sets out the current state of UK farming and what needs to change to shape sustainable futures.  Recent reports show that UK food production could fall by over a third by 2050; a stark reminder of the pressures facing agriculture. With global tensions escalating, farmers facing severe margin pressures and the government prioritising environmental schemes over food production, the report sets out a disconnect between the country’s ability to feed itself and current industry strategy.  Download the report on this page.
