摘要

Following the referendum vote to leave in June 2016, the United Kingdom officially left the European Union (EU) in January 2020. Agriculture has always played a key role in the history of the European Union and accounted for almost 40% of the total budget of the Union when the vote occurred (Helm, 2017). Post-referendum, the UK government declared an ambition to pursue a ‘Green Brexit’, marking a ‘new era for farming, fishing and the environment’ (Gove, 2018). The European Union exit has been viewed as both a challenge and an opportunity for the United Kingdom to develop a new vision for agriculture and the environment, combining targets for biodiversity and net zero with a framework for sustainable and productive farming. Brexit removed the United Kingdom from the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), and the British Government’s Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) has since moved England onto a new path in agriculture policy.
