The National Farmers’ Union is a trade association, created for and run by its members. We have been at the forefront of agricultural and rural issues for
more than 100 years; we are the voice of British farming. We have 45,000 members in England and Wales. The NFU’s strength continues to derive
from members who make their living from the industry. We are rarely out of the media spotlight, and we are proud to have the loudest voice campaigning for and promoting British agriculture.

We are the ‘go-to’ organisation for the national media when it comes to farming and agricultural issues and we are proud to have an extremely high profile, respected nationally and in Europe. Our Communications and External Affairs teams ensure that we continue to protect and preserve the reputation of British
farming, promote and campaign on our key lobbying priorities and ensure that the British public continues to Back British Farming.
