Lincolnshire County Council is funding advice sessions for county farmers in the light of a series of government policies that have affected the sector.

FREE BUSINESS ADVICE FOR FARMERS AS CHALLENGES MOUNT 

In December the council allocated an extra £50,000 to provide additional finance advisory support for farming businesses to plan for the future. 

Those interested in either impartial one-to-one advice or taking part in a group workshop can now express an interest. The sessions will be delivered as part of the Lincolnshire Farm Support Programme.  

The council will be working with other local and regional organisations that offer support to the farming sector to deliver this conference. 

The sessions are co-ordinated by the Business Lincolnshire Growth Hub, which provides business support information covering all sectors and growth stages. Targeted advice is delivered by Savills – industry experts and local land agents. 

Interested farming businesses can complete the Business Lincolnshire enquiry form available on www.businesslincolnshire.com/enquiry or email businesslincolnshire@lincolnshire.gov.uk in the first instance. 

Lincolnshire County Council has collated a range of support available to those in agriculture and horticulture, available at www.lincolnshire.gov.uk/keeplincolnshiregrowing
