[QUOTE="Jackov Altraids, post: 7783561, member: 3566"] The NFU do an enormous amount of good for the industry and there are some excellent representatives at local and regional level. They have 2 massive problems. 1, They are heavily influenced by those with the most time to lobby them. This is why they are biased towards the interests of big businesses with many employees rather than family/small farms. 2, Red tractor. How have they allowed a body they own become the very thing it was meant to avoid? The fact it exists in the form it does shows a high level of either negligence or corruption. It is also connected to problem 1 in that it disproportionately affects smaller farms and seems to only benefit [some of] the larger ones. I will not renew my membership until compulsion is removed from RT membership and it has to exist on merit. [/QUOTE]
