[QUOTE="digger64, post: 6600014, member: 16562"] Why has this situation re processing capacity (not just dairy ) occurred ?, why is it not viable to process milk in N Ireland ? I expect there is a lot of milk produced and exported in Ireland why would they want UK milk ? How do we as an industry expect not to be held to ransom price wise if we have exported our processing capacity and have to haul stuff around backwards and forwards internationally to get it to the consumer (- these costs are passed back to the ex farm price as you have pointed out ) ? He we are in a densely populated urban country and unable to make it work as whole , anyone would think listening to you we are like farmers in Manitoba 250 miles from the nearest railside grain elevator never mind a port , are you sure that the present system is really the best long term plan ?
