"Uncertainty is part of life and business, but things at the moment take the biscuit. We have commodity and input prices soaring while the breadbasket of Europe is under threat, and UK food exports sit perishing on motorways. The future of UK farming schemes is becoming clearer, but with many questions still unanswered. For our farming and landowning clients, polishing their crystal ball is becoming a vital skill.
Events in Ukraine put all of our own worries into perspective. We have much to be grateful for. That doesn’t diminish the troubles through which we guide our clients, or the stresses that come with them, but we can help with most of those. A bad day at work remains better than the current day in many parts of the world.
As difficult as it may be, planning for the future remains the most vital thing you can do. Failing to plan is planning to fail, as the saying goes. Good advice underpins it, and we are here when you need it."
Jonathan Carroll, Director & Head of Agriculture/Agri-business
