Environment Agency Farm Inspection Video Launch

The Environment Agency (EA) has recently launched a new video called 'What Should You Expect from a Farm Inspection?' to shed more light on what happens during one of their farm inspections and aims to clear up any misconceptions. It recognises that receiving an inspection letter can be worrying.

The video shows three farms going through the inspection process. It includes feedback from the farmers and comments from the Environment Agency’s officers on how they approach their work.

Building on their 'Harvesting Success' booklet produced in 2024, the EA has produced the following blog to provide further details on why and what they do during an inspection. You can read it here: How to Prepare for an Inspection from the Environment Agency (EA): A Farmer’s Guide – Creating a Better Place.
