Yorkshire Farming Conference to return to Harrogate in 2027

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 13 Oct, 06:03 · Archive

The Yorkshire Farming Conference will return to Harrogate in January 2027 after a successful debut earlier this year.

The Yorkshire Farming Conference will return to Harrogate on 27 January 2027, organised by the Yorkshire Agricultural Society at the Great Yorkshire Events Centre. The inaugural event earlier this year attracted over 700 farmers and industry professionals and featured leading speakers and a sold-out trade show supported by more than 60 businesses.

David Tite, manager of the Yorkshire Agricultural Society, said the first event 'really seemed to strike a chord with attendees' and the organisation is already lining up speakers for the 2027 conference. Farming advocates Tom Carlisle and Rebecca Wilson, alongside Clare Wise from the NFU, will lead sessions at the forthcoming event. Mr Carlisle, a fifth-generation sheep and beef farmer from the Yorkshire Dales, said he was pleased to be involved again to share knowledge and learn from others.

Ms Wilson, a farmer, podcaster and agricultural advocate, said connection and knowledge exchange were vital as agriculture faces change. The conference showcases networks including the Future Farmers of Yorkshire, the Farmer Scientist Network and the Yorkshire Rural Support Network. Tickets go on sale from 19 October at yorkshirefarmingconference.co.uk.
