In the crap years they will give you barely enough and expect you to be grateful - in years like this they will give you nowhere near enough and you walk.
No, for a couple of years they paid a very handsome premium over the market. Several hundred of us felt it was certainly enough of a premium to justify the hoops/paperwork required.
When that premium isn’t considered enough to jump through the required hoops, people leave. It’s that simple, and no different to any other contract with any other purchaser.
I only make the point that none of these lamb contracts will ever work on any scale because what they offer is one sided.I should maybe point out that, before I signed up, I searched back over various threads on here regarding the Tesco COP contract.
I found numerous postings by @gone up the hill (particularly) making just the suppositions that you did, whilst clearly having absolutely no idea of the mechanisms of that contract.
Having already seen the contract at that point, and having spoken to quite a few folk already on it, I pee’d myself laughing at those comments.
You cannot buck the market.

What I want doesn’t matter. Yourself and Guthrie have been posting how imports should somehow be restricted to protect home producers (which I would like too), whilst calling out anyone that didn’t/wouldn’t vote for a Party that campaigned on a mandate of cheap food and a scrapping of import tarrifs.
You can’t have it both ways.

Oh come off it. The Land Rover looks better because they spend that much time having new bits fitted or the chassis welded up. We ran LR’s for years. Grandad wouldn’t have anything else. Then Dad bought an Isuzu. Grandad denounced it as foreign rubbish. Then when mum and dad took us too Florida in 2000 we got back and Grandad had been using the Isuzu the whole time we were away!
now we all run Jap motors and wouldn’t dream of going back!Skintagain

Spent our holiday near St David's and a lot of time crabbing at this harbour, full of people canoeing, swimming in that water, thankfully we dint by the sounds of it.Guessing Wales will still all be an NVZThe water companies pollute like no tomorrow, back in the summer we had a tip off to tell people not to go swimming in the local harbour as the sewage works couldn’t keep up with a ten fold if not more in occupancy so the sewage was going straight into the harbour where thousands per day would visit as it’s very sheltered. For months it was brown there

The latest Isuzu we have has loads of rust after 3 years, the earlier ones were much better.
They are a disposable motor, you run them for 5 years until the mechanical warranty runs out and scrap them.
Land Rover just keeps on increasing in value if you keep them maintained.
The irony of Land Rover has been that the last ones made have been probably the best ever made!!
Anyone properly tested the new Defender? Not heard any reports from someone who uses them off road!
