Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what plans her Department has to support exporters of (a) wheat and (b) barley in the event that the UK leaves the EU without a deal.

The Government has established the UK Agricultural Marketing Monitoring Group with the devolved administrations to monitor developments in the market across our agriculture sectors. This group will operate in the event the EU leaves without a deal. It will provide forewarning of any atypical market movements and will help us to ensure that we are aware of the implications for UK stakeholders. We continue to consider options for easing the flow of trade in cereals in the event of no deal.
