The party's agricultural manifesto focuses on its promise to help farmers with agriculture.

Britain's Reform Party published its manifesto for the July general election last week, following the Conservatives, Labour, Greens and Liberal Democrats.

The party called its manifesto a ‘contract’ with the British people.

The election manifesto is divided into reforms it says are needed in the first 100 days after the general election and beyond.

‘Take advantage of Brexit’

The ‘Reform Britain’ deal argues that UK agriculture needs reform to take advantage of Brexit.

The report criticized the current government's policy of paying farmers for environmental goods, saying agriculture is in crisis and food security is at risk.

The manifesto calls for government subsidies to force farmers to meet environmental goals instead of producing food.

Fuel and fertilizer costs have soared. Farmers have to deal with huge amounts of paperwork.

Agricultural land is being lost to rewilding and solar farms.

High energy costs and supermarket price fixing have driven many farmers into bankruptcy. Rural communities are dying.
