Keith Symondson (CEO) has written this month's Editorial (excerpt below):
News of COVID-19 dominates the headlines as well as most conversations and is likely to do so for many months. It is a difficult time for all of us and I hope you and your families are staying safe.
Given the rapidly changing situation, Farmanco has had to evolve how we work, think and how we continue to offer support and advice to all our clients. As you are probably aware, we closed all of our offices in March, and all our consultants are working from home.
