Yeah but I dont want to look the same.I like my girls with big boobs
Eh Where does supply management fit in there???1 and 3???Volatility is great for some, but not all.
Stability/predictability is what causes the real damage - eg "the end of the road for small livestock farms" thread amongst 100 others on here...
..it facilitates very small businesses to continue to operate with slim/negative margins, and helps nobody by pretending to help everybody
the real problem ahead is that most people can see the cliff looming up, and will choose to either brake or accelerate - forgetting that they are actually holding a steering wheel that could alter their course away from that cliff.
Few producing countries are prepared to throw their farmers a decent sand anchor (eg ELMS) which is why, from a Kiwi perspective, I wonder why the gloom and doom?
1. Historically high farmgate prices for good levels of equity
2. Decoupled payments, should you choose to accept it
3. Massive domestic market
4. Reliable island climate
5. Cheap grain
We only have number 4! And Aus has number 5.

And just like NZ. It does not mean we will go anywhere to filling it. What seems to be extremely failed to be comprehended by THE MAJORITY on here is it HAS TO BE PROFITABLE. If more oney can be gained from a competitive market, why would you send it to the UK just because you can? Your ALL get carried away over sweet FA.
Who knows? But as said. We have many agreements and markets, including domestic. For arguements sake I bought a 2 pack of Scitch fillet (a type of cut here....NOT actual Scotch produced) in a local supermarket today for$33. It was bloody beautiful (granted I cooked it.... wasnt letting the other half ANYWHERE near it...) . Meat of any description will sell to the BEST returning market......wherever that is...... AND I doubt it's you blokes. So , please, all of you , STOP PANICKING.....Agree you will only send it over here if China tells you to
f**k off now that's not going to happen is it?

Let them have Trudeau and you take Cindy.So you need a viable alternative government, where's that going to come from??? Would you like Trudeau, your more than welcome to have him.....

You have failed to grasp the concept that just because you do something for one, does not mean you have to do something for all. Hell. You dont even have to embark on a deal with the US if there is NO benefit at all to the UK economy.It’s not the Oz deal ... it’s the Trojan Horse of Other FTAs that is troubling me
You ALSO fail to grasp the concept that the market and ECONOMICS will dictate if there is ANY increase. The way I see it. It will only be those already exporting there to high end restaurants and the like that may benefit. Selective lines, branded. Not generic "meat". You'll more likely see an increase in wine , in exchange for an increase in whiskey. And probably (maybe) an increase in Sunrice (Australian branded and wholly owned by the cooperative of growers).So at the end of the day, Skippy gains by having better access to the UK market. Domestic UK farmers and Irish farmers for that matter, lose out because their product gets displaced on UK shelves. Skippy is happy and so he should be.
What has UK gained by way of growth in exports to Skippy? This thing looks decidedly one way traffic if you ask me!

That is true but they will probably sell us down the river just to look good, said it before the ref and it still may well happen, you never know they may even do a deal with someone that has some cheap meat to sell.You have failed to grasp the concept that just because you do something for one, does not mean you have to do something for all.

Yes. They may. And then again they may not. That's on your NFU to have a stronger voice in lobbying in the future. Dont forget, Australia is probably one of the only countries that you trade with that has zero tarrifs coming inbound. Meaning , if you do a deal with the US and they want free access to your beef for argument sake, then reciprocal rights should be bargained. What could we have offered? To pay your freight perhaps??That is true but they will probably sell us down the river just to look good, said it before the ref and it still may well happen, you never know they may even do a deal with someone that has some cheap meat to sell.
