Done to the best of my ability but with the wording of some of the questions that wasn’t easy.
Obviously I’ve heard of set aside but I didn’t tick the box because it stated that farmers were paid not to farm the land in order to increase biodiversity, I’m certainly not sure that was an aim of set aside nor convinced it’s something it achieved.

Similar with quotas, I’m not sur the definition given matched the realities so I didn’t tick the box

@Sonoftheheir are you an organic farmer as your daughters survey seems biased towards organic.

Filled it in , as long as she is happy and it helps her out thats the main thing !!!
No point plucking the old " organic vs conventional " crow at this point .

Ha! No, far from it! I think the line of questioning is very much inline with what and how they are taught! That could be bias to organic hey?

I have filled in the survey as far as possible, but your Daughter seems to be under the impression that Organic Farming is all good and sustainable, and that Conventional Farming is all bad.

Good evening,

Not sure where to post this but my daughter has made a short survey for her Geography A level and asked me to post it on here.

Seems fairly short and simple to me, could some of you fill it out please?

Thank you in advance,
Gary

It seems a bit ironic to me that in a survey about organic farming, there is no scope to be a mixed farmer

We did have a discussion about this, but she too agrees that probably the people writing the coarse content are middle class, Guardian readers?!

You mean mixed organic/ conventional?

 

[czechmate]

You mean mixed organic/ conventional?

Ah, the choice was livestock or arable, so I meant mixed in the traditional sense
