U.K. Chancellor of the Exchequer Sajid Javid said the government will provide 2.9 billion pounds ($3.8 billion) of funding over two years to support farmers as Britain leaves the European Union.
The assistance will ensure that farmers receive the same funding next year as they did from direct payments from an EU subsidy program this year, the government said in an emailed statement.
