 * Thank you Dianna for your message. For the updated history piece on the Worshipful Company of Farmers I used a source from "A history of the Worshipful Company of Farmers - the first fifty years 1952-2002" by Michael Berlin for the Company. The ISBN is 1-86077-169-6. The history mentioned in the recent update on why the Company was established is reconfirmed in the book's foreword by HRH Princess Royal as Past Master. I hope this helps?
