A slew of traffic management policies are set to be introduced in the hope of leaving the area “relatively undisturbed”, Clarkson explained.

    Among them is a temporary 30mph speed limit on routes surrounding the roughly thousand-acre farm.

    One-way systems on many of these roads will also be in place in an attempt to prevent gridlock.

    Meanwhile, access to the farm through the nearby village of Chadlington is set be prevented with local access only alongside staffed control points.

    Buses have also been laid on by organisers to transport attendees from regional hubs around the country directly to the site, while parking at the farm is free in the hope of preventing traffic queues.

    Those driving to the event from the south will use the A361 to access one car park, with those coming from the north being rerouted via Cox’s Lane and Old London Road to another parking site, organisers said.

    They added that they were also working with local schools to alleviate any impact on students – including those sitting GCSE and A-level exams.

    Cereals is an annual agricultural trade event featuring crop plots, machinery demonstrations, expert seminars and networking opportunities for farmers and others in the industry.

    It comes shortly after the release of the fifth series of Clarkson’s Farm – which documents the Who Wants to Be a Millionaire presenter’s day-to-day life running his Oxfordshire farm.
