ABOUT THE SPEAKER

STEPHEN LOCKE STEPHEN LOCKE ASSOCIATES LTD

FIONA BENSON OSTRICH SOLUTIONS LTD

EXTRA DWELLINGS ON THE FARM? – YOUR PERMITTED DEVELOPMENT RIGHTS

COMMERCIAL POTENTIAL OF OSTRICH

WEDNESDAY | 14.45 | THEATRE 7

THURSDAY | 13.15 | THEATRE 1

This seminar will look at why councils still seem to be refusing many farm building agricultural to residential permitted development planning applications. The process of a Class Q application will be discussed together with ways of improving your chances of success.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER Stephen is an experienced rural chartered surveyor and chartered town planner with over 24 years in practice. He established and leads Stephen Locke Associates, a specialist rural land, property, and planning consultancy. He has been involved with many rural building conversion schemes across England and Wales and has a team of allied professionals providing a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach.

The objective of Fiona’s seminar is to provide a little history of the industry and the potential of ostrich to provide a great tasting quality red meat on a commercial scale utilising ethical management systems.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER

Antonio Paladino is co-founder of Bioaqua Farm and the brains behind the system. He runs regular courses at the farm and consults in aquaponics. Antonio comes from a farming and lake fishing region in the North of Italy where he trained as a chef to then build a career in London, working in five star hotels and fine dining restaurants to private event catering, including members the Royal Family and top celebrities. Sixteen years later, his mission for fresher high quality ingredients sustainably farmed drove him to build the biggest aquaponic trout farm in Europe to date, creating a unique business model that includes selling the freshest local veg and gourmet food, to education and consultancy on how to build and manage your own aquaponic farm. He’s since gained attention globally and from media including the BBC.

Despite hearing all the problems relating to ostrich production at farm level, Fiona started to farm ostriches in 1995 on a small scale to gain a better understanding of where the problems lay. With South Africa’s key focus being on leather supply to exclusive markets, there was a lack of will to produce ostrich on an industrial scale for meat production. With this attitude, Fiona couldn’t see a future in South Africa and returned to Europe to work more closely with Stan Stewart to support development of high production projects.

FARRINGTON’S FARM SHOP

WEDNESDAY | 14.00 FOOD THEATRE 2

Many successful farm shops have a kitchen to make their own products. Indeed, it is what most customers expect; but do they really know what they cost to make? Andy shares Farrington’s (challenging) experience of this with you.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER Although his family had been farming tenants of the Duchy of Cornwall for five generations, Andy decided to follow a career with the Milk Marketing Board instead. However, newly married to his ski instructor Tish, they decided to do a “real job” and take over the family tenanted dairy farm in Somerset. They “played” at farm retailing for 10 years before opening Farrington’s in 2001, adding a café two years later. The dairy herd were sold in 2006 to provide more parking, an outdoor play park, rented retail units, and finally a play barn with an approved-status kitchen.

THURSDAY | 13.15 | FOOD THEATRE 2

The Dandylion brand stands for quality, heritage, and family. Their aim is to create products that become firm household favourites, and can be enjoyed during lazy, luxurious get-togethers or as an everyday indulgence.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER Francesca Booth is an irrepressible New Yorker (who has a bit of Italian heritage thrown into the mix for extra pizzazz) and trained patisserie chef. One day, Francesca was hit with this thought: “Wouldn’t it it be amazing if there was a range of tea designed to pair with pastries, desserts, and savoury courses – in the same way you’d pair a beautiful wine with each course?” Not one to ever let a good idea slide, Francesca’s inherent love of good food and drink, combined with her outright determination, lead to the creation of Dandylion.

HIGH VALUE TRUFFLES: HOW TO CULTIVATE THEM ON YOUR LAND WEDNESDAY | 15.30 | FOOD THEATRE 2

This seminar will discuss truffles, their worth, and the conditions needed to cultivate them. Dr Thomas will discuss all aspects of the truffle business including technical requirements, considerations such as set-up costs, resource requirements, and grant availability, and expected yields, income, and product distribution channels.

During his 30 minutes, William will tell his story of how Radnor Hills turned a traditional farming business producing sheep, cattle, and cereals into one producing water, tonics, and juices. William will discuss some of the greatest challenges and ups and downs of that journey, creating a manufacturing business in a very rural setting.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER William Watkins read Agriculture and Food Marketing at Newcastle University. When he left in 1988, he returned to his family farm in mid Wales, but after 12 months farming he decided to diversify the farming business by packing mineral water into cuplets for the airline industry. After selling cups to airline caterers from the back of his car for two years, in 1995 he put his first bottling line in. Radnor Hills now produces 250 million bottles per year and has increased its potential capacity to 300 million bottles per year. It employs 190 people, producing and selling a wide range of water, soft drinks, and juices. William still has extensive farming interests as well as having further diversified into the hotel industry.

If you’re looking to diversify your land and grow truffle trees as an investment, or simply looking to grow truffles for enjoyment, then this seminar is for you.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER Dr Paul Thomas submitted his PhD on signalling systems in plants at the University of Sheffield in 2004. In 2004/2005, Dr Thomas received a small grant from the White Rose Centre for Enterprise (WRCE) to commercialise the technology. WRCE put Dr Thomas forward for the first series of the Dragons’ Den, in which a deal was initially accepted with Simon Woodroffe (£75,000 for 25% of the business). However, after filming, Dr Thomas decided that the investment wasn’t right for him and his business but after turning down the offer he continued to build Mycorrhizal Systems Ltd into the global company it is today.

FARM FOOD CASE STUDY: TRUFFLE FARM TO FIVE STAR PLATE Dr Paul Thomas’ passion for truffles began at a young age. He became aware of truffles through an interest in foraging, discovering that there was once a thriving UK industry. However, the industry was all but wiped out with the loss of natural woodlands in which truffles naturally occurred. Later, he learned that over 80% of continental truffles were now cultivated but that no one was doing this in the UK – it was an obvious gap in the market and a chance to revitalise this once thriving industry.

worldwide, including having recently produced the UK’s first cultivated truffles. Planting truffle trees is a great use of redundant or otherwise unusable land and can be supported by grant funding. Truffles are a fantastic crop in terms of diversification; they have relatively low maintenance requirements and are a consistently high value crop.

As part of his academic studies, Paul further looked into production methods and found there to be a variety of problems with trees from the continent and so focussed his research on ways to refine the methods and reliably produce truffle bearing trees.

The demand for truffles is ever increasing, and as natural harvests are declining, cultivating this native crop is becoming even more important. From Michelinstarred restaurants to gastropubs, chefs are focussed on sourcing quality local produce and Mycorrhizal Systems are able to supply directly to restaurants. But beyond this, as their intensely flavoured UK truffles attract a premium, their produce is in demand at a global level.

Now 12 years on from starting his research and Paul is a world truffle expert, regularly speaking at international conferences and his company, Mycorrhizal Systems Ltd, are producing truffles

Mycorrhizal Systems assist their growing partners at every stage of production – from site selection, soil analysis, tree supply, annual monitoring, and harvesting. This means that the end

customers are confident that they’re getting a quality ingredient that can be reliably farmed, keeping their produce in high demand.

EXPERT, IMPARTIAL ADVICE FOR YOUR DIVERSIFICATION PROJECT

Diversification into new areas of business – making your land, property and business assets work harder – is increasingly popular and brings new income streams. However, many landowners have been talked into new ventures by salesmen and consultants that then go on to become costly mistakes. It is vital that you have independent, impartial and expert help and advice. And that is where the CLA can help.

The CLA not only has its own advisers in all the core areas you need – land use, legal, taxation, planning and grant schemes – but we almost certainly have members around the country who have already undertaken a similar venture. We understand what income you could realistically earn and, more importantly, we know the potential pitfalls. All this advice is free to CLA members. Ensuring you have adequate funding for your diversification project will be critical. CLA advisers are able to help members identify the relevant sources of funding including grants and financial instruments. For example, a Dorset member saw the opportunity to set up a tourism business providing luxury holiday cabins within a woodland setting. By guiding him through the grant process for tourism funding, the CLA was able to help identify the type of grant that would be required to make his dream of providing luxury visitor accommodation a reality. Furthermore, he was able to create additional income by

providing a variety of sporting and leisure pursuits including paintballing. With any diversification project, it is highly likely that you will need to consider whether planning permission will be required. CLA professionals can advise on planning issues. For instance, a Wiltshire member who intended to let a dwelling as holiday accommodation contacted the CLA after his local planning authority insisted that he required planning permission for change of use. CLA advisers were able to clarify the situation from the planning authority’s point of view and recommend how the member should respond. The delighted member thanked the CLA for its “very comprehensive reply”. Other common areas for landowners setting up a business to think about include: business structure, tenancy issues, employer’s responsibilities, tax issues such as registering for VAT, contracts and agreements, health and safety as well as environmental issues.

CLA members benefit from impartial advice on all these areas. At the show, our experts will be presenting seminars on a range of topics that will be essential for anyone considering a diversification project. These include tax, planning, rural funding, share farming and telecommunications.

The CLA gives advice to members on the complex factors involved when considering a diversification project.

Experiencing the wild is an attraction for holidaymakers that will never go out of fashion; but enjoying the great outdoors alongside the comfort and charm that comes with glamping is for many the perfect way to spend a holiday. photo: Lotus Bell Tents

Glamping, therefore, offers a thrilling opportunity for landowners and farmers to diversify their land, providing an alluring alternative to traditional style camping or caravanning with luxurious accommodation such as glamping barns and cabins, bell tents, nature lodges, pods, safari tents, yurts, tipis, and much more. The main appeal of a glamping holiday is its unique degree of relaxation combined with an unforgettable experience, and glamping business owners need to get this potentially difficult mix spot on if their service is to be a success. So if you’re thinking of setting up a glamping getaway, where do you start? Well, you will be able to find the glamping industry’s most experienced and successful businesses at FBI.

You can immerse yourself in the numerous suppliers of luxurious alternative camping accommodation that make our line-up of exhibitors, including Boutique Camping, renowned for their bell tents; Clear Sky Safari Tents and their high quality safari and bell tents; and there’s also Quality Unearthed, specialists in the alternative and unusual holiday accommodation market.
