LEAF organise events throughout the year to help, inform, educate and celebrate the work that goes into protecting the environment and agriculture.
The LEAF Annual Conference took place on Tuesday 20th November at the Barclays in London. This unique and intimate opportunity was for farmers, the food chain, researchers and agricultural industry as well as government officials to discuss and learn from each other about the current state of food defence.
Catch up on some of our previous events with access to presentations, photos, videos and commentary from the day.
