Sumer Agriculture Newsletter: Autumn 2026
In this edition, we explore:
- What comes after Harvest 2026, with insight from Ceres Rural on lower yields, cash flow pressures, stronger grain prices and the decisions farmers are making now.
- What one farm’s harvest can tell us about the year ahead, looking beyond headline yields to crop performance, investment, marketing and profitability.
- Farm diversification and long-term business resilience, including opportunities across agri-tourism, renewable energy and commercial lettings, alongside the commercial and tax considerations that need to be planned for.
- The new APR and BPR rules and succession planning, including what the April 2026 changes could mean for farming families, landowners and the transfer of agricultural and business assets.
Throughout the edition, our agriculture specialists bring together practical experience with a wider view of what’s changing across the sector, helping you understand what it could mean for your business, your assets and your plans for the future.
