John Kelley, AIC Chief Operating Officer, said: "We're looking forward to welcoming Members, the wider agricultural industry, politicians, academics and guests back to Peterborough for the AIC Dinner & Conference 2024.
"This annual event is a valuable forum for professionals and businesses in the agri-food industry, providing a major platform to network, learn, and be at the forefront of industry thinking.
"This year's Conference theme - 'Capturing added value within the agri-food supply chain' - is particularly pertinent given the current economic pressure.
