NFU Scotland has used a meeting with Secretary of State for Scotland David Mundell MP to stress the importance of providing as much clarity and certainty to the farming and crofting sector as preparations for the Brexit negotiations get under way.
The union welcomed the opportunity to engage in early discussions with Mr Mundell at East Lothian Produce, Haddington, on Wednesday August 17. East Lothian Produce is a growing and packing business producing sprouts, cabbage, parsnips and potatoes.
