What does the future hold for British farmers after Brexit? The environmental journalist George Monbiot says he has real concerns for UK waterways and wildlife without a guarantee of safeguards from Brussels. Meanwhile the Country Land and Business Association insists that landowners and farmers could prompt better environmental laws for Britain in the long term.
At the Royal Agricultural University in Cirencester, the vote to leave is the only topic under discussion at the moment. The next intake of students will have to face the reality of working in a post-Brexit industry. Senior Economics Lecturer Dr Allan Butler has been assessing how the markets and farm incomes could be affected by leaving the EU.

Now we know we're turning away from Brussels, UKIP's Agriculture spokesman Stuart Agnew claims that British producers will have the 'whip hand' on the global markets.
