AUCTION MART OF THE YEAR

HEXHAM AND NORTHERN

MARKET DRAYTON

SKIPTON

CARMARTHEN Mart had a di icult few years preceding its closure in 2020, leading to the owners, Carmarthen County Council, to advertise a public tendering process. Nock Deighton Agricultural proved successful and reopened the mart in March 2022. It now sells 1,000 sheep, 100 dairy cattle, 250 calves, 250 store cattle and 70 barren cows weekly, as well as 300 weanlings and 80 bovine TB-restricted store cattle monthly, plus machinery. There is still room for improvement at Carmarthen, but it shows what a dedicated and hardworking team can achieve.

CLITHEROE CAFE

CLITHEROE CAFE is over the moon to be nominated for Cafe of the Year. In May 2021, it was invited to re-open and provide the catering facilities at Clitheroe Auction Mart. The menu has seasonal daily specials and caters for all tastes, from a bacon sandwich to a full carvery for any occasion. It serves co ee and a delicious selection of cakes and pastries made by its own on-site pastry chef. It uses only fresh local produce and is very proud of the team, who have helped create a welcoming and friendly environment for diners.

JOE BOWMAN

(Harrison and Hetherington)

JOE Bowman grew up on a farm near Carlisle, where early exposure to the agricultural lifestyle laid a strong foundation for his future career. In 2015, he joined Harrison and Hetherington and began his auctioneering journey by selling poultry and small machinery. Joe takes pride in working for both sellers and buyers, treating every client with the same level of respect and commitment whether they have one sheep or a thousand. He firmly believes in seller equality, ensuring that every sale is conducted fairly and transparently.

HEXHAM and Northern Marts is honoured and delighted to be recognised and nominated for this award. The company is renowned for having a warm welcome, its customer service, integrity and ambition and its core values. Perfectly situated near the A69 and A68 to serve the agricultural community of the north of England and the Scottish Borders, the centre provides great business opportunities and regularly holds social events for the wider community.

MARKET Drayton is honoured to be shortlisted for this award and gives its sincere thanks to all its clients who use the market and have contributed to its success. It is the team ethos from director through to drover who all display that passion and ‘can do’ approach in order to make the market thrive. Its aim is to enhance its client’s livestock marketing experience by bringing together the rural community and o ering a facility where service and trade matter. Coupled with ever-changing technology, it tries to keep its buyers and sellers informed on a daily and weekly basis.

AUCTION CAFE OF THE YEAR

DOT’S CAFE, DARLINGTON

THE MARKET CAFE, HEREFORD

SKIPTON Auction Mart, owned and operated by CCM Auctions, serves the needs of customers both local and countrywide, with a full range of prime, store, breeding, pedigree, sheepdog and machinery sales. Sales are two days per week year-round, rising to four to six days at busy times. The compact team of auctioneers, o ice and yard sta strive to o er the best possible service they can to all clients at every stage of the marketing experience, welcoming customers to its modern and easily accessible mart on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales.

THE ROSTRUM CAFE, SELBY

DOT’S Cafe is led by Dorothy Macdonald, a farmer’s daughter whose heritage spans six generations. Dorothy’s upbringing instilled a profound respect for farming and the environment. She supports this by sourcing local ingredients, turning them into hearty meals and homemade desserts. Dorothy champions British farming, promoting its importance with passion and education. Dot’s Cafe serves as a welcoming community hub where people gather for good food and conversation. Dorothy and her team ensure exceptional service, going the extra mile to make everyone feel at home.

MEGAN DOWSON (Darlington Farmers Auction)

GROWING up around farms in the local area, Megan knew the importance of auctions. Since joining Darlington in 2022, she has learned the trade from the bottom up, and recently established a calf sale. She has enjoyed both the time in the rostrum and on-farm building relationships with farmers. Her aim as an auctioneer is to forge, encourage and build on trusting relationships, being a constant in the customer’s life when everything else in the industry can be volatile.

THE Market Cafe has been run by Jenifer Gore and family for the last 15 years. With all food made to order, the team provides a heartwarming service to all customers from near and far. Their focus is on using local ingredients and creating good, wholesome food, but listening and caring is just as important. The cafe also champions and donates to many charities and support visits from the NHS Health Check team and local health counsellors who provide invaluable support for all.

OF THE YEAR

GEORGE STARKIE (Clitheroe Auction)

ALTHOUGH not originally from a farming background, George always dreamed of having a career in agriculture. He first started working at Clitheroe as a clerk, then as a drover, eventually moving on to auctioneering – all while studying a degree in agriculture at Myerscough College. Although he loves the auctioneering side of the role, George says he also enjoys meeting new people and building long-lasting relationships with customers, which is key for an auction mart to thrive.

JUSTINE Bloom took over the running of the cafe more than five years ago along with a small team of ladies, who meet you with a warm and cheeky welcome. They serve good, old-fashioned, hearty, locallysourced, quality food – from a bacon butty, to a traditional full English breakfast, to the highly acclaimed roast dinners, where all meat is supplied by regular wholesale buyers at the mart. All cakes are homemade by Justine, who also o ers outside catering and private functions.

BEN WILSON

(Thirsk Farmers Auction)

NOW 18, Ben first started selling cast sheep on joining Thirsk at 16, and now sells all the store and breeding sheep, taking over the pig section last November and selling a few cattle. Coming from a family farm, he appreciates the role auction marts play in the agricultural industry, not just for business but for friendships and socialising. He says that since he first picked up a gavel and has been able to do what he loves from such a young age, he has been living the dream.

Property Landscape Conviction in market conditions prevail

Katie I’Anson’s advice on the current market

GRANTS SPECIAL

As expected following the Agricultural Transition, there has been a greater supply of land and rural property come to the market as farmers have looked to retire, release capital or rearrange their focus.

However, in turn, the uncertainty approaching the General Election and subsequent introduction of the Labour Government has contributed towards a stalling market.

Sellers are generating interest and welcoming viewings, but we are experiencing buyer uncertainty surrounding transactions, particularly around residential property and larger commercial units.

development, to achieve optimal BNG units.

Inevitably, some developers will have to seek credits or units from off-site locations, which may provide opportunities to those more rural and remote landowners.

What will happen to stamp duty? Interest rates? Am I better off buying now or waiting for more favourable conditions which may come later?

How these BNG agreements are assessed for Inheritance Tax Relief further down the line will influence landowners’ desires to enter into such long-term arrangements.

There are still questions being asked around the future of farming. Will we be farming with a food production focus or environmental custodianship? How can we integrate the Sustainable Farming Incentive into this land?

This leads on to the more general taxation queries derived from the rumours which came from the Labour camp that Inheritance Tax may be reformed.

Investment purchasers are wondering what the effects will be on rents short- and long-term.

Diversification

Landlords’ and owner/occupiers are further weighing up non-farming diversification ventures to derive greater, more secure returns, such as through solar farming.

There will be some opportunity for urban edged clients to dispose of more land for development in the new Government’s push for more housing, but what will the effects of this increased supply have on values?

The demand could be sufficient enough to succour prices, or an oversupply could further plateau the market or drive prices down.

l Planning ahead is key to success

By Alex Black

CAREFUL preparation is crucial when selling a farm or block of land if farmers want to avoid some of the pitfalls which can prolong the process.

This would not only involve thinking through how best to present and market a farm, but also asking the right questions about who to involve in the process and when, said David Slack, head of north estates and farm agency department at Strutt and Parker.

Having the right team in place could be the single most important decision, from agents to accountants and lawyers, who form the ‘three-legged stool of success’.

He said: “Getting it right means you have the best possible chance of achieving a great result with the least amount of stress possible, and can shave months off the time it takes.”

He added all parties should be instructed as early as possible in the process – at least a month before launch, but preferably earlier.

Agents value the property and should advise on any ways to boost its value, such as strategic lotting, and on the most appropriate sale method, as well as liaising with other parties after a deal has been negotiated.

Accountant

Mr Slack highlighted that getting the right accountant was important because the way in which a farm was sold could impact the tax position.

“For example, they will be able to identify what reliefs from Capital Gains Tax may be available and the

LAND VALUES VARIABLE

ENGLISH agricultural land values are variable, with arable values ranging from £6,500/acre to £17,000/acre in the first half of the year, according to Strutt and Parker.

Analysis of the Farmland Database, which tracks sales of publicly marketed land over 100 acres, showed an average arable land price of £11,000/acre, which was near to record levels. The market was more location-driven, with many ‘flying out of the door’ while others took longer to sell.

Over 59,800 acres were listed in the first half of 2024 (35% above the five-year average), and

All parties involved in a sale should be instructed as early as possible in the process, said David Slack of Strutt and Parker.

most tax-efficient way to manage the proceeds of the sale,” he said.

A common source of frustration was the length of time between receiving an offer and completion. He said getting a lawyer involved in the preliminary stages meant they could start preparing answers to

as a result of the increase in supply there were fewer farms which were selling above the guide price compared to 2021 and 2022.

Sam Holt, head of estates and farm agency for Strutt and Parker, highlighted the resilience of prices despite higher interest rates and pressure on farm profitability.

He said: “Over 70% of sales of arable land have been at £10,000/acre or more in the past three years. Before then, 70% of sales were for below £10,000/acre. For pasture, a third of sales are over £10,000/acre, compared with less than 10% of sales before 2022.”

pre-contract enquiries before the sales particulars were even written.

Mr Slack also urged people to choose an agricultural specialist.

“We see instances where people decide to appoint a high street residential conveyancer to handle their farm sale and it inevitably leads to problems because they are not familiar with many of the issues that will need to be addressed,” he said.

Land Registry

He suggested inviting those involved to the farm before the sale to offer a better understanding of the property and help them to identify potential problems. For example, there could be boundaries issues or land which is not registered with the Land Registry.

“Buyers will typically want land to be registered before they proceed, so if this is not flagged until late on in the process it can add considerable time to a sale –particularly as the Land Registry is currently taking about three months to process applications,” added Mr Slack.

Getting it right means you have the best possible chance of achieving a great result, with the least amount of stress

DAVID SLACK

He said vendors also needed to gather together all the documentation a buyer was likely to want to see, such as title plans, agri-environment scheme agreements and abstraction licences, as this should make the process both quicker and easier.

With the UK wine industry thriving, Savills’ Chris Spofforth takes a look at land values and the future of British viticulture. Megz Swift reports.

In 2023, the UK grape harvest had an average yield of 9.6 tonnes per hectare, translating to approximately 21 million bottles of wine.

UK viticulture keeps growing

● Bumper yields for wine producers

WHEN you think of a gold-standard wine, your mind might gravitate towards French Champagne, an Italian Soave, or even a Spanish Rioja. However, top-quality, award-winning wines are also being produced much closer to home, with eight English wines winning gold at this year’s Decanter World Wine Awards.

The UK wine industry has been thriving, and in 2023 it achieved a significant milestone with a record-breaking grape harvest – an average yield of 9.6 tonnes per hectare, translating to approximately 21 million bottles of wine. This marked a substantial increase of 7.9m bottles from the 2018 output.

Chris Spofforth, Savills GB head of viticulture, said it had been a ‘bumper yield year’.

According to WineGB, there are now 4,209 hectares of land under vine in the UK. The increasingly

temperate UK climate, combined with advancements in suitable grape varieties and winemaking techniques, has paved the way for the UK to become a serious player in the global wine industry.

“The price of land suitable for vines typically ranges from £16,000 to £20,000 per acre, while established vineyards – aged five to 20 years – can sell for up to £35,000 per planted acre,” said Mr Spofforth, who has been involved in the market since the early 2010s.

“The uptick in winemaking has had an impact on values, and the sector is much more commercial nowadays than it used to be – many vineyards now sell on the private market.”

Climate

Over the last 60 years, the UK’s climate has undergone subtle yet significant changes, creating more favourable conditions for grape cultivation.

Unlike in other parts of the world, where climate change has caused

adverse effects on some of the most renowned wine regions, the UK’s rising temperatures have prolonged the growing season, allowing for enhanced grape ripening, resulting in the production of higher quality grapes and, consequently, brilliant wines.

Sustainability

The viticultural industry in the UK has been undergoing a sustainability revolution. New sustainable standards have been introduced for British winemaking, including the Sustainable Wines of Great Britain (SWGB) certification, which has guidelines prioritising soil health, biodiversity, carbon footprint reduction and integrated pest management.

Additionally, SWGB also developed standards which focus on responsible resource use in the winemaking process.

Denbies Wine Estate, a SWGB producer, made history as the first UK vineyard and winery to produce certified net zero wine. As consumers become more eco-conscious,

sustainable practices will be essential for the industry’s long-term viability.

Wine tourism has been rapidly gaining momentum; in 2023, an impressive 1.5m visits to UK vineyards were recorded, which was a notable 55% increase from the previous year and illustrated a growing appeal and interest in wine tourism among British consumers. Offering venue hire for events and gatherings, including weddings, could also be a lucrative opportunity for these businesses.

The thriving wine tourism industry has significantly contributed to creating local jobs, extending beyond vineyard owners, workers, and winemakers to encompass a diverse workforce, including tour guides, tasting room staff, event co-ordinators and hospitality staff.

These roles have provided increased employment opportunities within viticulture. In 2023, WineGB statistics reported 2,300 full-time and 8,300 part-time employees in the wine industry.

With high inflation causing problems for farm businesses and estates, Carter Jonas takes a look at the importance of diversifying income streams. Farmers Guardian reports.

● Increase in value for renewables

SLOW economic growth and high inflation have emphasised the continuing importance of diversification to rural estates, according to new research released by Carter Jonas.

The national property consultancy’s Model Estate report tracked various asset classes over a 12-month period to demonstrate how a managed mixed enterprise would perform.

For a number of years, it has shown that income diversity is the key to positive financial performance, especially in the face of political uncertainty, the Covid-19 pandemic and, most recently, economic turbulence.

This has been echoed in the new report, as when the latest figures were applied to a notional 1,282hectare mixed estate, the results

Economic challenges show value of diversification

showed non-farming income was integral.

For the year to December 2023, the Model Estate was valued at £51.54 million (a 2.8% annual increase) but had seen more modest growth than the previous three years.

Diversification played a leading

role in maintaining economic stability, with its renewable energy assets recording the strongest growth.

The solar farm saw an 18.6% yearon-year value increase, and a new 100MW battery storage system was installed to store electricity and discharge it during peak demand.

Agricultural land, which accounted for 56.6% of the estate’s value, also saw healthy gains over the year, reflected in the performance of the in-hand and let farmland.

Tim Jones, Carter Jonas’ head of rural division, said: “While growth has decelerated year on year, the trend remains positive.

“Annually, average arable land values have risen by 1.6% and average pastureland by 2%. This compares to 6.4% annual growth for arable land and 4.4% for pastureland a year earlier – a period defined by a particularly tight market with very limited supply.”

Carter Jonas believed this deceleration in growth was indicative of a well-balanced market.

Sophie Davidson, senior research analyst, said: “While greater supply is creating more choice for buyers, and so tempering price growth, there is still a healthy level of interest driving activity.

“Commercial farming businesses, especially those which are largely cash-rich with less need for finance, remain a driving force in the market. This is complemented by a growing presence of natural capital buyers and the continued presence of rollover buyers who have used Business Asset Rollover Relief and are yet to reinvest in another asset.”

Stability

The election was a key talking point in the second quarter, but it did not disrupt market dynamics. With a Labour victory, the industry was hoping for a period of stability after months of election speculation and prolonged political instability.

“The Labour party, despite its relative lack of specific policy initiatives for farming, has pledged its commitment to making the Environmental Land Management scheme work and has not stated immediate intentions to change the tax regime, although key tax reliefs affecting those with rural businesses and property are anticipated to come under scrutiny in time,” added Mr Jones.

“While some economic concerns remain, positive signs are emerging. Inflation, as measured by CPI, aligned with the Bank of England’s 2% target rate in May, suggests a more optimistic outlook.

“Although current interest rates continue to be a factor in business decisions about buying or selling, inflation is forecast to remain close to 2%, paving the way for interest rate cuts in the near future.”

The solar farm on the Model Estate in Carter Jonas’ research saw an 18.6% year-on-year value increase.

With the Government setting out changes to tax rules for furnished holiday lets, Saffery’s Lucy de Greeff looks at the impact for business owners. Farmers Guardian reports.

Tax changes on holiday lets

● New rules to take e ect in April 2025

CHANGES to the tax rules for furnished holiday lets (FHLs) mean those currently taking advantage of tax reliefs might want to review the use of the properties.

The Government has recently released a policy paper which sets out the proposed changes to the tax rules for FHLs for inclusion in the Finance Bill 2024-25.

Until April 5, 2025, a property that qualifies as an FHL can benefit from various tax reliefs not generally available to rental property businesses. However, following the proposed changes, many of these tax reliefs will be removed.

Lucy de Greeff, director at Saffery, and a member of the firm’s land and rural practice group, said: “There have been advantages to letting a property as an FHL for individuals but, in anticipation of the rules changing next April, care will be needed to ensure that any current tax reliefs are maximised and the transition to reporting in line with other property income and gains is done correctly.”

In terms of income tax, in cases where properties are owned by individuals or through a partnership, the headline is that up until April 5, 2025, full relief can continue to be obtained for finance costs.

However, from April 6, 2025 , former FHLs will be treated in the same way as residential let property and the usual finance cost restrictions will apply.

Capital allowances are currently available for an individual’s FHL business and can be claimed for costs of providing furniture and equipment such as cookers, washing machines and beds, although where the property is used for private purposes these allowances are restricted.

However, from April 6, 2025, any new expenditure will no longer qualify for capital allowances, as FHLs will be treated as regular rental properties. As a result, landlords should, in certain circumstances, be able to claim ‘replacement of domestic items’ relief. Where there is an unrelieved capital allowance ‘pool’ on April 5, 2025, capital allowances can continue to be claimed.

From April 6, 2025, former furnished holiday lets will be treated in the same way as residential let property and the usual finance cost restrictions will apply.

Property owners may wish to forecast the impact of the changes to finance cost relief and capital allowances into annual budgets

LUCY DE GREEFF

Profits from an FHL are currently treated as earned income for the purposes of pension contributions, but this will be removed from April 6, 2025.

Ms de Greeff said the policy paper provided some clarity.

“Property owners may wish to take the opportunity to forecast the

impact of the changes to finance cost relief and capital allowances into annual budgets. There might also be an opportunity to review the use of the properties,” she said.

“There are some further rules for cases where FHLs are owned through a corporate structure and are therefore chargeable to corporation tax.”

For capital gains tax (CGT) purposes, the reliefs currently available in relation to FHLs, including business asset disposal relief, rollover relief and business asset gift relief, will no longer be available from April 6, 2025. However, some limited transitional rules will apply.

Ms de Greeff said there might be an opportunity for some property owners to take advantage of these reliefs prior to the changes.

She said: “It is also worth noting that the use of unconditional contracts to obtain CGT reliefs under the current rules will fall foul of an anti-forestalling rule, which applies from March 6, 2024.”

The Government’s proposal did not provide clarity on Inheritance Tax, but if FHLs were to be treated

as part of a property business it could be assumed this would remove any ability to claim Business Property Relief.

Another issue that will affect owners of FHLs under the new rules is how losses can be used. Former FHL properties will form part of a person’s property business, which will then include the amalgamated profits and losses of all the properties in the business.

Losses

Where losses have been brought forward from an FHL business, under the new rules these could continue to be carried forward to be offset against future years’ profits of a property business.

The provision of holiday accommodation is subject to VAT, regardless of whether the property qualifies as an FHL for other tax purposes or not.

The income received from supplies of holiday accommodation forms part of a trader’s taxable turnover, and is therefore relevant when determining whether a liability to register for VAT has arisen or could arise in the future.
