The seventh annual Back British Farming Day has been rescheduled to take place, after it was postponed due to the Queens funeral from it's original date of 14th September.

The public are encouraged to take part during the day, as it shines a spotlight on the efforts of farmers and growers across the UK. 

UK politicans are encouraged to show their support by wearing the iconic wheatsheaf lapel badge. Last year, senior politicians including the then prime minister Boris Johnson, and Labour leader Sir Kier Starmer, wore the badge during Prime Ministers Questions.

Farmers and growers are encouraged to help showcase the positive role they play in providing the nation's food by using #BackBritishFarmingDay in their social media.
