<p>We recognise that the agriculture industry, including the poultry and eggs sectors,
has faced a number of challenges over the last year, particularly in relation to the
increase of input costs as a result of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. However, our
assessment is that the conditions for intervention under Section 20 or Section 21
of the Agriculture Act are not currently met, not least because input costs are now
falling.</p><p> </p><p>We continue to closely monitor the situation in each sector
through the UK Agriculture Market Monitoring Group and via regular, on-going sector
stakeholder engagement.</p>
