[QUOTE="Baling Hay, post: 271922, member: 1057"] Thing is though, it does not have to be that way. It is that way for the simple reason that farmers do not take account of their full cost of production and also accept a very low wage, use family labour and accept a shockingly low rate of return on their land investments. As a result they continue to produce and accept low commodity prices for their produce, if more farmers stood back and costed everything in, made adjustments or cut back production the end price would rise and there would be a better margin in the job.
