[QUOTE="Devil's advocate, post: 7437008, member: 1504"] At that point I went for my tea. Although us small growers complain about larger producers. They have created a great career struture. A young person can grow up in a terraced house & look out at those fields which they could never ever buy. Yet if they work hard, maybe some field harvesting or pack house work when young, go to college & get qualifications. It is possible to access a wide range of rewarding careers & have a life style better than a small grower would have. There are at least 6 large buyers & numerous other outlets. There are many growers. It is a market of sorts if too many growers give up, supermarkets will have to bid more to secure the produce. Having said the above super market is dog, grower is tail & tail does not wag the dog. Will be interesting who takes over the role that Hunterpac have had in the North West. [/QUOTE]
