Part of our long-term growth strategy

Clopton Green Farm spans 485 hectares of high-yielding Grade 3 arable land, complemented by 26 hectares of woodland and 3 hectares of grassland that support biodiversity. With 6,900 tonnes of grain storage, 26 million gallons of water, and a diverse range of crops—including cereals, potatoes, and onions—the farm operates with maximum efficiency. It also features essential infrastructure such as a workshop, machinery stores, and a weighbridge. As a key part of our long-term growth strategy, Clopton Green Farm is committed to responsible land stewardship and efficient crop production.
