Bps Reductions England Only

[StormInATeaCup]

Sorry if everyone’s moved on from this but why is there not more outrage that only English farmers are suffering progressive BPS reductions when ELMS looks like such an inadequate and ungenerous replacement?

We all sell commodities on the same global market and it seems like a huge and unfair disadvantage to farmers in England compared to the other home nations…

Unfortunately the Government here have never valued food producers unless they are in a muddle, importing is easier.

BPS has not been the same across different parts of the UK ever since it was introduced, so nothing changed in that respect, same with agri-env schemes & capital grants etc . It's called devolution.

The NFU don’t seem to mind, so it must be ok.

The NFU is a bad misrepresentation of what it actually is, it is not a National Farmers Union as you would imagine, it is a conglomerate of various parties that finance it, each with their own particular vested interests, it certainly does not seem to me to operate purely for English farmers benefit!

Maybe its high time a new organisation was started that is solely for and about farmers ?

i agree its ridiculous if we cant have a fair placing field in the uk we fooked from the off set,

devolution is quoted to be one of the worst things david did, i totally agree!

I'm only outraged that BPS wasn't removed decades ago
(ELMS is not meant to be a replacement for BPS)

Only a farmer could be that ungrateful for receiving £80 /£90 /ac support, that they'd want something totally different, looks like that's what we're getting

We live in an country with a pretty strong currency and a high cost economy... commodities are traded on international markets... the price fair to a British farmer can be very different to a fair price for similar produce from other parts of the globe... Brexit is not only tearing up subsidy payments it is also tearing down trade barriers....

I can think of a couple around here who stuck out the posters and talked the good story....

I have often wondered if they would vote the same again, with hindsight.

Ok I'll try harder next time

remember mr angry on steve wright in the afternoon?

Tbh i reckon a bit of it s alright if it gets spent on permanent fencing, gates sort of thing especially for smaller farmers with smaller fields
