One thought on “What is it about our local National Farmers Union?

  1. In summary the story is about a member of a planning committee in Devon (not EDDC) who has apparently been charged with growing cannabis.

    But the real interesting question (from a theoretical perspective at least) is whether cannabis growing would constitute “farming” if you were seeking to remove the agricultural occupation restriction on your property?
