Post-Brexit sales of British farm products to EU drop 37%, farmers' union says
"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging."
"Analysis of HMRC data carried out by the National Farmers' Union (NFU) shows sales of products, from cheddar cheese to meat, have dropped substantially since the UK left the EU in 2020. The poultry sector has suffered the biggest losses with exports down 37.7 per cent, followed by beef exports, which are down by 23.6 per cent, lamb by 14 per cent and dairy by 15.6 per cent, The Guardian reported."
A news outlet prioritizes on-the-ground reporting across issues like reproductive rights, climate change, and Big Tech and funds reporting through reader donations rather than paywalls. The outlet emphasizes producing documentaries and investigative stories and maintains that quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it. Analysis of HMRC data by the National Farmers' Union shows UK sales of farm products to the EU have fallen nearly 40% since 2020, with poultry down 37.7%, beef 23.6%, lamb 14%, and dairy 15.6%. The NFU president said the fall cannot be attributed solely to Brexit and warned that removing trading barriers would not immediately restore lost market share.
