No they have enourmous scale and cheap labour WHICH WE DONT!!!!
What, you mean like the advantages the massive open cast coal mines in various parts of the world had, that could produce coal far cheaper than UK deep coal mining could?
Consider yourself lucky. Coal miners didn't get a cheque for £80k/yr for doing nothing, and when the mines closed they got a a few thousand in redundancy and a life on the dole. If your business goes bust because of cheap foreign competition you can sell your farm and still be a very wealthy man, even at land prices a fraction of todays.
Even now the State is promising you free money if you provide environmental goods, so its not like you're being thrown to the wolves, in the manner many industries and their workforces have over the last 50 years.
Just stop your whining for goodness sake. You sound like you're about 8 years old.
