I’ve said from the start that I’m concerned about the routine co mixing of RT assured cereals with non RT assured cereals particularly where this precludes the use of the RT logo on consumer facing products. I’m currently doing some work to better understand this issue. As I’ve also said I...

However, going forward ........

With respect that’s not what I said in my final para.

I do have enough brains to realise that if you come onto a chat room and mention that chat rooms are chat rooms and they don’t achieve much, then you are not going to make yourself flavour of the month with people in the chat room let alone the owner of the chat room. So to make myself even more...

Apologies - ‘positions of influence’ is a bad choice of phrase, I meant people who hold office in organisations and speak in that capacity.

I’m not going to turn this into a Q&A with me in the chair. I come in here on my own terms and I can understand why you won’t find many, if any, people in positions of influence on here. Suffice to say I think some of the points in the thread are well made and they don’t pass me by. But as...

I’m sorry but it’s the mill that sets the requirement not Red Tractor.

Again, I think your complaint is against those who insist on RT assurance. If they didn’t want RT assurance it wouldn’t exist.

To repeat Most of the buyers of U.K. cereals want it RT assured so by having it assured farmers significantly expand the markets they can sell to. If you don’t believe me try selling non assured cereals. I suspect your grouse is that you think it is outrageously unreasonable that these buyers...

Thanks for the kind remarks. It’s good of you to acknowledge that I’m genuine when I say I want RT to work harder for farmers. I can assure you it’s something I say quite often not just on here. As said RT assurance gives you the ability to sell to people who choose to want that assurance. So...

Just to reiterate. You don’t employ or pay me, Red Tractor does. Red Tractor run an assurance scheme just as do LEAF, the RSPCA, the Soil Association, Global Gap. It would seem from what you say that the people you want to sell to insist on RT assurance - that’s the market advantage RT...

As I’ve tried to make clear above, I’m keen to do some work on this. Rome wasn’t built in a day. But you should be asking this question of those who do the co mixing.

They don’t post on here or answer questions in threads.

Like everyone else I come on here on my own terms, not someone elses. If you think about it no one I’m aware of comes posts and replies onto TFF in an official capacity representing a wider body. There are hundreds of companies, agencies, organisations, bodies etc etc in and around agriculture...

No, I get £10,000 a year. At the current rate of hit I reckon I’ll do about 50 days a year. I doubt I’ll have any expenses. No idea about Minette.

Blimey GUTH, read the preceding page.

As above GUTH. How’s Crediton ( or was it something else ending in ton - Trumpton 😉)

I thought you might like to share. You’re not usually the tight lipped shrinking violet. Moving on. What’s your thoughts on trying to persuade DEFRA not to ban urea fertiliser by agreeing to conditional use checked, in part, by RT?
