AIC Members will be aware of the case of classical Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) that has been confirmed in a cow on a farm in Dumfries and Galloway.
AIC, together with UK Flour Millers, The Maltsters Association of Great Britain and the British Oat & Barley Millers Association, are partners in this Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board (AHDB)-managed project.
The Government has announced a £65 million package of support for farmers in England in response to the ongoing drought.

There have been no further substantive developments from Government on the proposed implementation of the UK Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), with fertiliser businesses still awaiting key information needed to estimate liabilities and price products accordingly.
