    The National Non-Food Crops Centre

    The National Non-Food Crops Centre AN ASSESSMENT OF NON-FOOD CROP OPPORTUNITIES IN THE SOUTH EAST OF ENGLAND June 2006 - i - A SEEDA funded report, prepared by; Lucy Hodsman National Non-Food Crops Centre Biocentre, Innovation Way Heslington, York YO10 5DG With additional contributions from; West Sussex County Council Kent County Council - ii - Executive Summary The South East of England is the largest Region in the UK, aiming to create a prosperous, dynamic and inspirational region and supporting and enabling local communities whilst safeguarding natural resources and cherishing rich cultural heritage. Currently agriculture sustains 39,800 jobs in the South East Region, in comparison to that of the manufacturing industry, which is almost tenfold at 357,700, this figure is marginal [14]. It is therefore becoming increasingly important to retain the skills and expertise currently involved in the agricultural industry and encourage those involved to remain and younger generations to pursue land-based careers. One option many farmers are now considering, since the reform of the Common Agricultural Policy in 2004, is the cultivation of crops for non-food and industrial markets. The Reform has provided farmers with the freedom to move away from intensive food production, towards new or novel crop options which may previously never have been considered. By cropping the land in this differing manner growers are able to maintain their arable roots, whilst targeting varying markets, potentially adding value and increasing farm income. Within the food sector the South East is committed to supporting local produce; through working with farmer groups, local food groups and other agencies to promote development and encourage new outlets through farmers markets and village shops.
