Outgoing NFU president puts some of success down to luck

摘要

NFU president Peter Kendall, who is to stand down after eight years, worked tirelessly to champion agriculture as an exciting and innovative industry with a bright future. He succeeded - but recognises that a turnaround in farming's fortunes helped play a part in his success. Mr Kendall announced his retirement to NFU council members during a meeting at Stoneleigh Park on Monday (14 October). He will stand down following the NFU's annual conference in Birmingham next February, when a new president will be elected.
