Can Cornwall’s farmers close the loop?
What does the circular economy mean? And how can farmers build it into their operations? With more of a focus on sustainability, rural businesses will need to consider circular economy approaches to their operations to reduce, reuse and recycle waste products as a way of dealing with farming’s environmental impacts. Our expert panel will explore the potential solutions and opportunities available. Speakers include:
- George Eustice, Chair of the International Fugitive Emissions Abatement Association Ltd
- Susan Twining, Chief Land Use Policy Adviser at the CLA
- Dr Robin Jackson of Director of Rural Business School (RBS), at Duchy and Bicton Colleges
The south west region have always been committed to supporting the local charities in rural areas and have been proud to fundraise during our busy show season every year. As an aside to this however, we have seen a significant rise in costs in the events sector this year. Therefore, to ensure that we continue to deliver quality events and fulfil our commitment to helping local charities, we will be asking for a very small payment of £14.50 per person (incl. VAT) at our show breakfasts. A proportion of this will be donated to the CLA Charitable Trust.
Booking for breakfast is essential, this event does sell out well in advance.
Attendance at the CLA Breakfast does not include entry to the show.
8:00am for an 8:30am start until 10:00am
Bookings for this event will open soon
