[QUOTE="andybk, post: 6511785, member: 347"] yes and supermarket pressure has held the lamb price back to what it was in 1980 , as they factor our sub into the price that they pay ( manipulate , i was getting £90 - 100 when i started on this farm ) 40 years of escalating costs and no extra income , every time you think lamb prices start moving in the right direction like last year , boat loads are booked for next season to get prices back to where they were , yet tesco is sitting on wealth most business only dreams of . some should be shared down the supply chain . Just who has benefited being in the EU ? certainly not livestock farms , there is hardly any left . plumbers / electricians on £50 an hour thats a whole store lamb AN HOUR ! We need to move away from sub and find new markets or ways of marketing (we are denied this being a member of the club) australian lamb is selling at record prices down under as they tap into china and usa markets , long term more volatility maybe but better than stuck in the marketing doldrums we have been in all my working life , and yet another year of break even .
