no what I'm saying is subs have just moved the goal posts in the same ways they have every other farmer I compete against (and make mistake we are all competing with each other) - higher rents and lower commodity prices are the result of subs, every acre I have ever rented has had its price inflated or not by its ability to claim sub - the land owner not the farmer has been the ultimate winner I guess
if one farmer gets subs we all need subs, if no farmer gets subs we don't need them
food will continue to be produced but things will be different and hopefully better in the long run
Commodity prices will NOT rise if subs go that is for sure and to think that will happen is very short sighted.
What the government is planning is no subs/ low food prices and the UK having the highest production/ welfare standards in the world and if this happens you can see what will happen to UK AG and it wont be pretty.
