We provide a range of specialist management and consultancy services to food and farming businesses, delivering practical support and guidance in a constantly evolving industry.

We understand that farming today covers wide-ranging activities and our team is dedicated to developing your farm business commercially, while also understanding the wider non-commercial aspirations that can relate to land ownership and occupation.

Farming is facing a seismic policy shift, led by devolved governments across the UK. Future support will incentivise farming businesses that invest in the environmental resilience of their natural assets and our team of experts are already supporting clients in navigating this transition. The rural sector holds many of the solutions to the challenge of climate change and biodiversity loss, whilst still maintaining efficient food production, and we are at the cutting edge of understanding the opportunities that this will create for the sector, from investment in production systems to the selling environmental offsets. We advise farming businesses on their next steps in order to take advantage of these opportunities.

Many farms operate as complex businesses, so our services draw on the broadest land and property expertise in the UK. This ensures that you have access to the leading food and farming consultancy, estate management, planning, building consultancy, renewables, tax and funding advice in the country.
