[QUOTE="Andrew1983, post: 8185326, member: 147"] BBC still manage to have a dig about meat production 🙄 I’m guessing the converting land to farms means taking grassland an putting poly tunnels on it as it seems they think growing a bit extra fruit is all we need. As long as they are not protecting us by equalling standards on imports this whole thing means nothing for us as farmers imo, our own labour will still be either undervalued or outside labour to expensive to hire in. Our standard of production costs money. The way costs are just now the only way I can try and ensure my business survives is to take foot of the production pedal and coast. Reducing expensive inputs and lowering output but most importantly lowering the risk of getting caught with a crop/animal I can’t sell which has been grown at the extreme costs we are now trying to deal with.
