NFU Deputy President Stuart Roberts said:
“»Ê¼Ò»ªÈËhas led the way and set the ambitious goal of reaching net zero greenhouse gas emissions across the whole of agriculture in England and Wales by 2040 so it made perfect sense for us to be an institutional partner for this event.
“This is a great opportunity to join the debate, find out more about how we can work together towards net zero, and help build momentum on climate action ahead of COP26 next year.”
