The rot set in nearly thirty years ago when IACS was introduced. The general population saw themselves as funding farmers. The 90s were golden years in some respects, after the initial, crunch of iacs introduction farming did well and the GP saw farmers as sponging off Europe and they were funding it indirectly. Since then it’s been slowly chipping away at farmers to where the next generation want nothing to do with it. Farms will become part of bigger ones and they will answer to supermarkets and become their puppets, theses farms will be owned by investors looking to avoid inheritance tax,carbon tax or any other scam to shuffle money around but not to farm in a traditional way. Family farms are a going to be a novelty in twenty years and the subject of a reality show on tv showing how things used to be.
