    David Long joins NFU horticulture and potatoes board

    Kent-based strawberry and pear farmer will be representing the interests of all growers in the south-east region

    David Long has joined the NFU’s horticulture and potatoes board.

    Long runs DG Long, a 1,500-acre family-owned farm near Rochester, Kent, producing pears and strawberries, among other crops.

    Long has overseen an expansion of the business in the last decade which has focused on the planting of new pear orchards.

    NFU horticulture adviser, Chris Hartfield, commented: “The NFU would like to congratulate David on his appointment to the national horticulture and potatoes board. We have no doubt that his experience in growing pears and strawberries will make his input invaluable to the challenges we face as a sector.

    “As well as representing the interests of fruit growers, David will also be representing the interests of all growers in the south-east region.”
