联合王国将农民的继承税门槛提高到2.5亿英镑,减轻了家庭农业负担。 UK raises inheritance tax threshold for farmers to £2.5M, easing family farm burdens.

2026年初,随着联合王国政府将继承税门槛从100万英镑提高到250万英镑,剑桥郡农民获得救济,这是国家农民联盟持续游说推动的胜利。 In early 2026, Cambridgeshire farmers gained relief as the UK government raised the inheritance tax threshold from £1 million to £2.5 million, a victory driven by sustained lobbying from the National Farmers Union (NFU). 这项改革旨在防止家庭农场面临可能导致关闭的无法管理的税收负担。 The change aims to prevent family farms from facing unmanageable tax burdens that could lead to closures. 尽管取得了这一进展,挑战依然存在,包括极端天气、农村犯罪、动物疾病、水安全、供应链公平以及当地屠宰场短缺。 Despite this progress, challenges persist, including extreme weather, rural crime, animal diseases, water security, supply chain fairness, and a shortage of local abattoirs. NFU继续倡导明确可持续农业鼓励措施,并支持政府支持的农业盈利能力审查,该审查提出了57项关于投资、规划和供应链改革的建议。 The NFU continues advocating for clarity on the Sustainable Farming Incentive and supports a government-backed Farm Profitability Review, which delivered 57 recommendations on investment, planning, and supply chain reform. 尽管向东安吉利亚经济捐助了14亿英镑,并支助了数千个就业岗位,但该部门仍保持谨慎,信心很低。 The sector remains cautious, with low confidence despite contributing £1.4 billion to the East Anglian economy and supporting thousands of jobs.
