RIVER LUGG - JOHN PRICE FARMER

Farmer's Weekly, speak to the Herefordshire farmer, John Price. John Price was imprisoned on the charge of causing damage to a protected river. 

In this interview he defends his actions, insisting they helped prevent flooding to local properties and land. After the flooding from Storm Dennis in February 2020, John Price did some river works in November 2020 to reduce the risk of further flooding to homes. 

It's outrageous what they did to this farmer. Apparently, they put him in jail for 12months, and it cost him 1.3M. 


Stand with our farmers, support our famers, they know the land. No farmers, no food!
