Support Cumbrian farmers to produce food
At a time when our country's food security is more at risk than at any time since the Second World War, we now have a farm payment scheme in England that fails to support farmers to produce food.
Policies started by the Conservatives and continued under Labour are actively preventing Cumbrian farmers from producing food.
This must change.
Our farmers should be supported and rewarded by government for producing nutritious, high-quality food.
And that support must ensure that every farmer gets their fair share - not just big landowners.
Back our campaign by signing the petition below…
Support farmers to produce food
I/we the undersigned call on the Labour Government to change its farm payment schemes so that farmers are financially rewarded for producing nutritious, high-quality food.
