As made clear in Embleton Parish Council v Northumberland CC [2013] there is no requirement in the Framework to show that the business is viable and the Council have not demonstrated unique circumstances in the District to justify a more onerous approach.
Also since the policy relates to not just agricultural businesses but rural businesses generally the specific use of the word agriculture in criteria 1 is not appropriate
