Jeremy Moody has been Secretary and Adviser to the CAAV since 1995. He was closely involved with the Agricultural Tenancies Act 1995, several rounds of CAP reform and now the new policies developing across the United Kingdom. He handles the many issues covered by the CAAV including agricultural tenancy and land occupation issues, taxation, valuation, planning, climate change and environmental issues, liaising with government at all levels and writing widely on both policy and practice. He is an Assembly member of the European Group of Valuers’ Associations (TEGoVA) and Vice Chairman of the European Valuation Standards Board.

 He won the Lifetime Achievement Award at the prestigious Farmers Weekly Awards 2024. He is praised for playing a key role in shaping agricultural policy and law for more than 30 years, Mr Moody has a vast knowledge of legislation and practice relating to rural and agricultural business. He was awarded an honorary doctorate by Harper Adams University in 2008 and was made an Honorary Fellow by the Royal Agricultural University at Cirencester last year.

Jeremy has been analysing the October Budget’s Inheritance Tax proposals, giving evidence to the Commons EFRA Committee, and engaging with Government, farming and other organisations.  Current work includes active concern with improving farming profitability and productivity without direct support from government, with more extreme weathers and the darkening international situation.
