What time ?Tonight Chanel 4
I’m told it’s not great news for Red Tractor
about chicken but surely can’t be long until they get their teeth into the combinable crop protection racket !
On Channel Four, and you think ag in general is going to be painted in a good light?
If it criticises RT, I suspect it will be because it is 'the farmer's scheme', which we use to hide poor practice.

If that's what's being said then I think it will fall on deaf ears . It is in danger of showing farming practices in bad light.I'm "told"
"it is likely that the episode of Channel 4’s Dispatches on Monday evening will focus heavily on animal welfare and food production in the UK, featuring undercovering filming at a large UK chicken farm. It appears that the central premise of the film is that food prices are too low, impacting the standards of production applied across the UK."
Will watch with interest.
Dispatches want telling how bad RT is. It's likely to damge the reputation of our industry. It needs outing and getting rid of before it's too late and causes a genuine food scare. It's a disgrace imho.
Heading on towards 1 in 14 cereal farms were suspended from RT in past 12 months iirc, yet it gets swept under the carpet.
Farmers are going to be totally the victims.has always only been a matter ion time before Red Tractors lack of integrity came to the publics attention - we all know its completely flawed, I suspect this is juts a start on the hatchet job investigative Journalists could do if they get their teeth into assurance schemes
trouble is its shows farmers in a bad light ....... yet this isn't of our making, we are victims of what the NFU have created here
Farmers are going to be totally the victims.
We've no choice but to be in RT because we've had our markets cut off by them.
RT is a flawed scheme.
It will likely get exposed by journalists.
We then look bad. No fault of our own.
People like NFU, AHDB, UK Flour Millers have backed it all the way.
Our reputation will get damaged, but we're trapped. We can't escape the bad press.
and it could put the farmers that are members right off the red tractor scheme and the nfu.It could put consumers off British meat all together.
