The draft is expected to bring closer compliance with the EU in animal health, plant health and pesticide rules for agricultural enterprises in the United as well as for UK-based farming operations. The agreement is expected to be formally agreed at the UK-EU summit scheduled for 20 November, while the government says an agreement could increase exports of principal agricultural products by about 16%.
