“Growing Resilience”, running from 7th to 9th January, will mark an opportunity to celebrate the incredible farming sector and its ability to adapt to the ever-changing world, the opportunities ahead for current and future generations and a valued legacy passed on by previous generations. The Oxford farming conference will also reflect on the resilience, strength and significant moments of the OFC over the last 90 years. Looking back to 1936 when OFC was first launched, their motto remains true today as it did all those years ago – to “challenge and inspire”, not only those who attend but the wider industry. And they are extremely proud that in recent years they have added “include”, highlighting their continued commitment that OFC is welcoming and accessible to all. We are a gold sponsor at this event.
