Not sure who's going to pick all this extra fruit and veg. Maybe we'll all just steal it from the fields like other third world countries....
I don't think anyone will ever steal veggies here from the fields, as it may need washing and cooking before eating, remember we are a country that sells ready cut carrots or runner beans etc in the supermarkets ready to cook or even ready hard boiled eggs!!!!!Not sure who's going to pick all this extra fruit and veg.

blair wasnt just a war criminal he was far worse than that! tell me where did his wealth come from? socialist HA HA HA!27 pages of utter utter drivel.
Worst government in living memory and i include blair the war criminal in that.
So with the mooted reduction in red meat products where is much of this sh*t going to come fromOrganic fertilisers , do they mean sh1t?
I was watching Tom Pemberton's YouTube channel and his Dad said something like "Does George Eustace think there is a mountain of Cow Muck just lying around waiting to be spread on land to replace prilled Nitrogen?"
Of course he could mean sewage cake, however, does that mean DEFRA is encouraging spreading micro plastics over all the farm land in the UK? Rather short sighted if it is!
Rather than phasing out eating meat, for the planet we should be aiming to phase out non biodegradable clothes (and therefore a lot of micro plastics), clothes from Wool, Leather, Cotton, Linen, Hemp even Cotton is a bit dodgy and I heard a radio programme about Bamboo saying the way it's treated is very bad for the environment. At least animal based clothes don't leave a trail of environmental pollution far outlasting the generations who would have worn them.With the planning thing, presume they're angling at making it easier to get permission for polytunnels or greenhouses. That's a start, as is allowing migrant workers for poultry processing, but if borris wants more mushrooms and greenhouses, then might be a good idea to allow foreign workers for horticulture or even dairy, spuds, pigs, etc.
Will be interesting to hear how borris intends to...
Monday’s strategy will announce a “focus on pioneering more organic-based fertilisers”
...not sure where this will be sourced from - I guess sewage cake, which as long as microplastics are dealt with, and if EA allow the phosphate loadings, then better on the land than pumped directly into watercourses. Come to think about it, if EA complain about phosphate from sewage cake, they should understand spreading it sensibly over farm land will cause much lower river phosphate levels than pumping it straight into the river!!!

Makes sense to make clothes from renewable and biodegradable materials.Rather than phasing out eating meat, for the planet we should be aiming to phase out non biodegradable clothes (and therefore a lot of micro plastics), clothes from Wool, Leather, Cotton, Linen, Hemp even Cotton is a bit dodgy and I heard a radio programme about Bamboo saying the way it's treated is very bad for the environment.

Actually they sold them yrs ago ,the prison farm was closed in 2004.Dartmoor Prison's "home farm" will be selling all their livestock and will g
Keep up loveBecause they are mainly imported ?
I'm incredibly curious how they are going to make "changes to planning rules to make it easier to convert land into farms".
Where are they going to find this spare land that currently isn't being used as farms?
Good , veg is too cheap by milesKeep up love
Broccoli & caulie harvested now is uk product.
Sown October under glass in modules, grown slowly, planted early Mar under thermal plastic or fleece. Lots of work but very worth while prices, almost double last years.
We're not short of anything in reality.We aren't even short of fruit and veg and it's all ludicrously cheap. The large veg growers aren't having a good time this year. So why encourage more to be grown. Idiots.
we are, politicians with common sense and integrity!We're not short of anything in reality.
