Event Details

Dr Benjamin Hopkins from Birmingham University will present in this OWT research seminar.

Agriculture and food manufacturing are two of the industries most affected by Brexit, from restricted access to product markets to shortages of workers. This presentation showcases qualitative data from multiple case studies across food production in the United Kingdom to investigate how these organisations have attempted to cope with the challenges of Brexit, how workers have experienced upheavals in both work and home life, and the implications for food security for consumers in the United Kingdom and further afield.
