[QUOTE="Dave645, post: 8159772, member: 55822"] If we really wanted the £1/t premium we are supposed to be getting if not more then just make mills pay it like they do via the levy system the AHDB use, on all crops they use imports and domestic. That way we can be sure that we are getting it, if it was a payment on just domestic they would just cut what they pay to us by that amount because imports could just undercut uk farms on price by that premium, every time. We then get the AHDB to use that to fund farm assurance at a base level and give them the ability to cut their mandatory levy they charge us, so we end up with little to know AHDB levy to pay and a free basic assurance scheme. I say basic as it should be a slim and simple as possible. That leaves RT where it claims to be, a premium product that for the producers that enter it, will get a premium they can see, or all farmers will dump it. we all know the RT premium doesn’t exist so I don’t give it long if alternatives exist.
