[QUOTE="Formatted, post: 4461650, member: 19062"] Nice sentiment but reality is slightly different. I voted for Brexit, I genuinely believe 40 years down the line we'll be better off but in the short-term we are heading for a bit of a car crash. If we leave in March 2019 without a free-trade deal with Europe, we'll see Lamb prices fall through the floor. Beef and Dairy could do well as we are a net importer, I imagine arable returns will be the same. Inputs will increase as everything bought from the EU will have tariffs on it. Subsidy is going in 2022, those that think it isn't need to wake up. Environmental, public goods (Hill farms that can't make money) and open access will receive additional funding. We won't have a bonfire of regulation that many are hoping for. We are likely to have to compete with imports from nations that have lower standards of production like Argentina and America as government seeks to get trade deals they will happily sacrifice farming.
