Maintaining good relationships between Landlords and Tenants when letting farms and land is important. Jack Edwards, Partner in our Salisbury Office outlines the recently published Agricultural Landlord and Tenant Code of Practice for England, a voluntary Code for all parties which helps establish clear expectations and guidelines by promoting fairness, transparency, and effective communication.The Code has three key principles, which are:
- Clarity: as to the definition of intentions, expectations and the definition of problems if they do arise;
- Communication: which should be clear and timely, considered, and tailored to the needs and situation of the recipient.
- Collaboration: the code of practice encourages a collaborative and cooperative approach. This is based on the belief that landlords and tenants can achieve much more when they work together in a positive spirit of common endeavour.
