Clarity needed from Government View from the Rostrum

Chris Dodds on fair prices and illegal imports

Trade continues to be strong in all categories through the live ring, with slaughter sheep prices dearer on the year and the five-year average. The store lamb market has started strong, with buyers cautiously optimistic for the season ahead. Store cattle trade continues very strong, with numbers tight and demand high; it is very difficult to value stores until they enter the sale ring.

This trade is helped by the strength of the slaughter cattle prices. Cull cows continue to achieve prices that no-one would have expected, with most auctioneers reporting an upward trend week-on-week for the past month.

A big question for us all: Does our new Government truly appreciate the food that farmers put on the table and the countryside they manage and farm? We will find out in the coming months. There have been few assurances announced so far to fill us with hope or clarity as to how Labour will manage rural business support.

Why is there an expectation that farmers should work tirelessly to pro-

duce ‘cheap’ food, when in most cases the price paid is well below the true cost of production? Our livestock producers must receive a fair price for their goods, and if this is not supported by the Government, ex-farm prices need to rise further.

A fair return is needed to give the industry chance to survive and build farmers’ confidence to reinvest in businesses. The country needs to remind itself that no-one can survive without food and remember that the gap between a plentiful supply and a shortage is only a handful of days apart.

What exactly does Steve Reed mean when he promises that food and farming are front and centre of Government policy? Does it mean

that the agricultural budget will be ring-fenced, increased, or reviewed? It is time to clarify and give farmers some degree of assurance.

For decades, the Livestock Auctioneers’ Association has worked tirelessly on behalf of its members and those farmers who use the live auction system. During the last Government, there was a lot of ‘unfinished business’; workstreams were put on hold due to Brexit, Covid-19, avian influenza, bluetongue and the General Election, with the excuse being that the departments were too short-staffed.

These and many other workstreams need to be revisited and concluded.

We have highlighted the need for the six-day standstill, the ageing of sheep by dentition and fairness in the supply chain to be reviewed. Seven years after the start of the development of the Livestock Information Programme, we are still a long way from the service bringing any benefits.

I chair the Livestock Chain Advisory Group, which is made up of representatives from 26 livestock industry trade bodies. The group meets bi-weekly, with Defra, Welsh Government, Scottish Government and Daera joining monthly to discuss industry issues and facilitate speakers on topics that we need more information on. This

platform gives us direct access into Government, and it also facilitates the industry highlighting and discussing some major concerns.

Border controls

One area that needs immediate Government attention is our border controls – there are too many reports of illegal meat entering the UK due to a severe lack of funding and not enough feet on the ground or controls in place. Recent illegal consignments found have included meats from countries infected with African swine fever and foot-and-mouth. The 2001 foot-and-mouth outbreak reportedly cost the UK £8 billion (£18bn today).

I sincerely hope our new Government will act swiftly to secure our borders, not just on the commercial import lanes, but also the private and domestic lanes, making sure illegal imports of meat and other products are identified, seized and destroyed. We look forward to working with our new Ministers to strengthen our industry and to keep it at the forefront of world livestock production.

Idecided to embark on the degree apprenticeship route after attending a careers fair at Harper Adams University. I thought it would be a fantastic opportunity to complete a degree, while gaining valuable experience within the industry in preparation for a future within rural surveying.

After attending the career fair, I began contacting local firms who I thought may have an interest in taking on an apprentice.

I believe it is important to highlight the qualities you could bring to the business when making an application for any role.

My apprenticeship with Rostons began in September 2023.

I quickly realised the wide variety of work that a rural surveyor completes and I was eager to get involved in the range of services Rostons offers.

So far, I have had the opportunity to not only assist senior colleagues with work they have been undertaking, but also gradually to take on more of my own instructions, which gives me a real sense of pride.

Assist

Being able to assist clients with their rural needs is exactly why I chose the career.

No two days are ever the same, but on a typical day I can be doing anything from settling compensation claims for schemes such as the Vyrnwy Aqueduct, to getting out with the drone to monitor land reinstatement.

I have taken a keen interest in the farm support grants that are available to our clients and getting out on farm to advise on these.

More recently, I have been trusted with advertising and selling land, which requires a good level of organisation and professionalism –skills that are vital to anyone wishing to pursue a career in rural surveying.

The degree element of my apprenticeship is conducted at Harper Adams University.

I spend one week a month on campus, where we have a packed timetable of lectures and tutorials.

The teaching week is a great opportunity to catch up with peers and I have made some fantastic friends. This is one of the great benefits of completing the apprenticeship route as these peers will go on to be future allies that I may work with throughout my career.

I am lucky that at Rostons we have weekly training which helps us prepare for our qualifications post degree.

To become a qualified surveyor, I am expected to sit the RICS exam which will assess my theoretical and practical knowledge of the role. Although I will not be sitting this exam until I finish my apprenticeship, I feel it is beneficial to start preparation early.

I am also aiming to sit my CAAV examinations within the next two years, which is for a professional body that advises on rural matters.

My experience thus far as an apprentice has been one of continuous learning which I hope will continue into my second year and beyond.

I look forward to the opportunities that lie ahead of me and would greatly encourage anyone thinking of a career in the industry to go for it as it is a fantastic way to learn both the theoretical knowledge and the practical skills needed for success as a surveyor.
