Good luck finding someone to head up the UKFU. Would expenses include a working farm manager to run the business at home whilst the 'President, worked 100hrs a week representing the members?
That's about all the NFU top table get.
I don't think for a moment NFU careers are all about money - it's more about power and Knighhoods historically
It does tend to lead to a long list of jobs that pay better the most farmers earn or pay themselves however
