Agriculture, Environment and Regulatory

The rules and regulation around agricultural issues such as farming, food, the environment and waste are often cumbersome and complex, and it’s all too easy to run into issues without realising there’s a problem. Your field is our field – our agricultural experts know the industries we represent inside out and use this in-depth knowledge to deliver the best results in times of crisis.

Rural know-how that gets results

We’re proud to have a team that understand rural affairs like no other. We speak your language, and we know the pressures and demands that weigh on the agricultural community. When there’s a breach in regulation, we apply our vast technical knowledge to the law to find an agreeable solution or limit your culpability.

Communication is at the heart of how we work, and we consistently liaise with regulators to understand their approach and thinking and ensure we can make the right representation, in the right way and at the right time. We regularly deal with offences relating to the movement and registration of livestock, TB regulations and animal welfare, and we’ll give you informed, practical advice.
