‘A perfect storm’: UK beet growers fear Brexit threatens their future. They produce half the country’s sugar needs, but expect new trade deals to make their tough situation worse.
In a field in Norfolk, the sight of lush green leaves sprouting from the soil are giving farmer Ed Lankfer cause for optimism. ÒI think this is one of the best crops we have ever grown,Ó he says, surveying one of his fields of sugar beet. The signs are promising so far for this yearÕs harvest, which takes place later than for other crops, during the autumn and winter. It would mark quite the turnaround from 2020Õs terrible harvest, when bad weather and pests caused yields of the white sugar-yielding root to plummet by as much as 60%, leaving Lankfer with a £12,000 loss. Sugar beet has been grown on LankferÕs 225-hectare (556-acre) family farm in the village of Wereham since his grandfather first introduced it in 1928, alongside other crops. However, recent years of falling prices, coupled with risks from weather and disease, have many farmers questioning whether there is a future in growing it.
This is before growers feel the impact of post-Brexit trade deals with large sugar producers such as Australia. ItÕs a concern for Lankfer, whose land is in international trade secretary Liz TrussÕs constituency. He has twice hosted her at the farm to answer questions from growers. British farmers hail sugar beet for its role in crop rotation and the timing of its harvest. ÒItÕs a good break crop, and it spreads the workload over the winter,Ó says Lankfer. The destination of his beet is visible from the field itself: the factory at nearby Wissington where it is processed, eventually ending up in products such as Coca-Cola and Cadbury chocolate, or bagged and sold to consumers under the Silver Spoon brand.

It’s a concern for Lankfer, whose land is in international trade secretary Liz Truss’s constituency. He has twice hosted her at the farm to answer questions from growers. British farmers hail sugar beet for its role in crop rotation and the timing of its harvest. “It’s a good break crop, and it spreads the workload over the winter,” says Lankfer. The destination of his beet is visible from the field itself: the factory at nearby Wissington where it is processed, eventually ending up in products such as Coca-Cola and Cadbury chocolate, or bagged and sold to consumers under the Silver Spoon brand.

UK firm to stop using British pork after post-Brexit border problems. Helen Browning’s Organic says it is switching to Danish suppliers owing to bureaucracy, delays and costs
A UK food company whose products appear on the shelves of the country’s largest supermarkets has decided to stop using British pork in its sausages because of the post-Brexit complications of moving meat across borders.
After two disastrous attempts since January to send British pork to Germany, where it is made into 75 tonnes of organic sausages annually, the firm behind Helen Browning’s Organic says it has been forced to drop its support for UK farmers and switch to Danish suppliers. “The cost, the complexity, and the sheer time and effort it takes to manage an export, it’s just not worth it,” said Vicky McNicholas, the firm’s managing director. Helen Browning’s Organic, which is named after the Wiltshire farmer who founded the business, supplies beef and pork products to some of Britain’s biggest retailers including Sainsbury’s, Ocado, and Abel and Cole, and is about to launch at Tesco.Pigs on Eastbrook Farm, near Swindon, Wilts. They have faced difficulties importing sausages form the EU.
