The Ulster Farmers Union (UFU) is calling on farmers, landowners, and supporters of Northern Ireland’s agricultural community to gather at a rally on Monday, November 18. Scheduled to take place at 7:30 pm at the Eikon Exhibition Centre, this rally aims to unify voices against the family farm tax, which many in the community argue threatens the future and sustainability of family-owned farms across Northern Ireland.
The UFU, a historic and influential advocate for agricultural interests, has represented the needs and concerns of Northern Ireland's farming community since 1918. Founded in the wake of World War I, the organisation initially focused on supporting farmers through economic challenges and ensuring fair treatment for agricultural producers. Over the decades, the UFU has grown into a powerful voice, lobbying for policies that safeguard rural livelihoods, preserve farming traditions, and support sustainable farming practices.
With the rally only days away, the UFU is working to spread the word, urging farmers and supporters alike to participate in what promises to be a defining moment in the fight to protect family farms.
