100,000 pigs to be destroyed

[Jam Tomorrow]

You’ve managed that with no help from anyone else

 

[Hilly]

Well, if you had a contract for a load of pigs every week and suddenly they only took 75% (or whatever) of 'em and told you 'to dispose' of the rest, I expect you'd think that was a bit of sh!t trick.

BSE was sh!t
F&M was sh!t

We've had it before, I expect it'll happen again British Ag is very resiliant.

Bse was compensated
Foot n mouth compensated
If it was dropped in the sh!t their would have been no compensation or subsidy’s .

 

[Hilly]

Same at 18.00 shift change, former Faccenda Brackley, carloads and bus loads, high proportion of my guess is Romanian/Albanians, so the cheaper end Eastern Europe even.
If they could import Martians to do it cheaper, I bet they would.
Blame the retailers who have manoeuvred themselves into a position of dictating what they will pay for chicken, pork, etc.

Same everywhere we have salmon processor mainly foreign workers , massive factory .

 

[Hilly]

Not aware of any pig enterprises subsidised or compensated. They do buy grain via feed at full market rates though

I didn’t say they were.

 

[Henarar]

Bse was compensated
Foot n mouth compensated

Both far from fully compensated

 

[Hilly]

Both far from fully compensated

Fair point , but it’s unfair to say agriculture gets dropped inthe sh!t , if it was dropped in the sh!t by Fuk the farmers would know about it !!

I didn’t say they were.

You didn't no

Their choice not to grow the food for their pigs
What I said is correct but I don't see JP admitting that he would rather just belittle people

I'm not belittling anyone. The purpose of this thread is to highlight the very real plight on farm right now. You seem to want to come in and debate all sorts of irrelevant stuff. Fine express your opinion but tbh the only one doing the belittling is you to yourself

You are making sweeping incorrect statements and then not admitting that you are wrong but instead just talking down to folk, thought you were better than that but perhaps you are just out of your depth on the subject

 

[Henarar]

You didn't no

But he would have been correct to say that some pig farmers get subsidy in the form of BPS wouldn't he

One last try

1. The pig sector is not subsidised. The ban on dry sow confiement was paid for by the industry before other countries did their's
2. Industry spokespeople are trying to highlight this would be the first cull of healthy animals for economic rather than health circumstances

Now if you want to carry on trolling carry on. If you want to comment on the thread that's fine , just accept there's a hell of a lot reading all of this who are in a bad place right now through no fault of their own

Pig farmers can claim subsidy in just the same way as any other farming sector, why is that such a problem for you to understand?

I know and I feel sorry for them it must be bloody awful.
Please quote where I have said that I think its their fault (as some others have done) or that I think that they should have seen it coming (as some others have done)
Nothing but sympathy for them.
If you have a problem with me picking up on some of your inaccuracy or don't like what I have posted or think it is wrong or think I am trolling you know how the report system works or at least you should do

Just been talking to Look North reporter that did the co2 interview a while ago
He reckons Boris was on times radio this morning giving the same interview as on the Marr show as we kill pigs any case doesn't seem to be a problem. He is getting me the interview
