We’ve reviewed the data and put together a detailed comparison report reviewing the costs and returns across the last five years in relation to Contract Farming Agreements (CFAs) for both contractors and landowners.

There is a complete dataset of 52 CFAs up to 2022, spanning a geography across the south and east of England. For 2023, whilst the results of 8 CFAs are still to be submitted, the 44-strong dataset gives a good indication of what the final view will be.

Please read and download the report here.
