By Charlie Reeve Verified| Farmers Weekly Verified The NFU is planning a fresh campaign to engage directly with Labour MPs in rural constituencies, to convince them of the folly of the chancellor’s plan to impose inheritance tax (IHT) on family farms. Lobbying by the NFU to alter the government’s controversial changes to IHT, have so far fallen on deaf ears at the Treasury. This is despite mass farming rallies in Westminster and suggestions of a clawback mechanism as an alternative approach for government.

By Charlie Reeve Verified| Farmers Weekly Verified An already stretched agricultural machinery sector was dealt another blow last week with the announcement of a 10% tariff on exports to the US. Agricultural machinery firms avoided the higher 25% tariff imposed on the motor industry, but will still face significant barriers to trade. Businesses are now frantically looking for solutions to reduce the impact, with costs and export sales set to be hit.
