#SaveOurFarms

Save Our Farms

The UK Labour government’s proposed changes to inheritance tax on agricultural property, specifically adjustments to Agricultural Property Relief (APR), are sparking strong opposition from farmers and rural advocates.

The proposed policy seeks to address budgetary deficits, but critics argue that without APR, family farms with narrow profit margins might struggle to survive. Farmers rely on APR to preserve multi-generational farms, and they see any reduction in these tax reliefs as potentially devastating to both the farming community and the wider rural economy. Many are calling on the government to protect inheritance tax relief for agriculture to sustain rural livelihoods and the long-term viability of family farms.

#SaveOurFarms has become widely used across social media, representing the concerns that scaling back APR could force farming families to sell portions of their land to cover tax obligations. This shift would pose a threat not only to rural heritage but also to the nation’s food security.

Do everything you can to help repeal this wicked, thoughtless tax before our farming heritage is destroyed for good.
