The issue is quite simple we disagree with double standards, I.e one standard for us and another for everyone else

But there is no shortage atm so why not use home produce when you can. And help keep your local industry there for when you need them….

It still beggars belief, that we must abide to a certain standard and yet end users can buy basically stuff potentially grown using products that are illegal to uk producers therefore potentially undercutting our ability to compete. Surely competitions law are being broken.

Agree this is so true this country really has gone to the dogs. We used to be a proud nation now we are nation of slobs and want to be celebs, over run by immigration ( yes i know I will probably get shot down for saying that, but that’s my view, look at Republic of Ireland they don’t want them...

Is the flooding in Brazil in an area of much Ag production?

Why should we not win that argument that is one thing the general public care so much about environment! Exporting our damage is one thing we need to play on the publics conscience! And push their own self righteous back at them. or let us produce it cheap using every tool in the box available...

Basically the mills and supermarkets control a protection racket in the UK, but use places such as NZ to beat us with!!! Allowing prodilucts in here that would be illegal to do in the UK but they like it because they can us it for price control. It’s simple, yes I’m sure NZ are good at marketing...

Exactly correct. There are some ego’s on here that seem to think their country is soo much better than little old England. We all play our part from Bangladesh to Bolivia. And in every one of our country’s we should be proud of the food we produce and should not be ashamed to want a good price.

Why not the weaving for spring barley

I think we all know that if we want to make money I mean a sensible amount farming is no longer the way, farming is becoming a sideline paid for by the other enterprises. One day people may wake up and smell the coffee but untill then farmers(anything but) will have to rely on other things to...
