Red Tractor is running a series of informal drop-in clinics at markets across the country to help members get ready for when its revised farm standards take effect from 1 November.

The team will visit Thame on October 6 and farmers will be able to get more information and support on what is changing in the latest version of the standards, and why, at an auction market near them.

Philippa Wiltshire, head of the technical team, said: “With many restrictions lifted, we are pleased to get on the road and meet with members face-to-face to provide support and guidance on the changes to our standards.

“They can also get help by visiting our assurance website, calling or emailing us with their queries, or by dropping us a message on social media.”
