1/4 Farmers tend to be rich in land but cash poor. Their income is extremely limited and difficult these days. They generally dont have hundreds of thousands of pounds just sitting around.

I think they got off lightly. They should pay the same level of inheritance tax that other people pay.

Land owners get venerated like war veterans for essentially inheriting value, while the majority of ppl, also holding up society, have nothing.

historically farmers have always been upset. the main issue -like most- that farming in uk struggles to be profitable in new age - esp against imports.

Just wait for fiscal drag in ten years time, remember stamp duty just a mansion tax that will only affect a few (when introduced). How many pay it now.

Great idea to force a farming family to sell 20% of their farms when margins are so small. You have this wrong my friend. Your facts are very different to my facts which actually mean they are beliefs

They can also put the farm into a trust. Their parents probably had to do the same because inheritance tax was charged on agricultural land (anything more than £100K) pre 1992.

Being asset-rich is still rich. Assets can be sold, leveraged, or passed on. Pretending otherwise is a tone-deaf way to ignore the privilege and financial power that comes with such wealth.

I find it amazing that we are all experts on farming now. Firsty it's around 500 a year. Secondly it could be over 50,000 total. See if you are going to report on it. How about saying it correctly!

Farmers are not the enemy, tax dodging millionaires buying up agricultural land are. We have lost 6300 producers since 2017, 30% of farms made no profit last year, 1 in 6 > £100k. 60% food security.
