[QUOTE="BrianV, post: 7889111, member: 150008"] Isn't it time that DEFRA owned up & admitted that they see arable farmers as the spawn of the Devil with their ploughs, heavy machinery & chemical soaked soils where as livestock & mixed farmers with their lovely pastures, meadows, flowers & hedges have surely been delivered from the loins of God, of course the only downside for Defra is in their opinion those bloody livestock farmers will annoyingly insist on keeping those horrible livestock. Still Defra can solve this problem by skewing any new subsidies in favour of those arable farmers to the detriment of those animal hating livestock farmers, with arable farmers mini till & insect killing insecticides they will soon clean up our world, after all who wants dung beatles & creepy crawly insects that those horrible covid inducing bats live on & those disgusting wormy things that live in farmyard manures. It might be the sceptic in me but I can't help feeling that many in Defra including the ever patient Janet just might be lentil scoffing graziers who would happily see the back of us livestock producers & would scream in disgust if faced with a traditional Sunday roast, maybe those arable guys are not seen in Defra's eyes as the spawn of the devil after all & perhaps we should all turn out our old ploughs to join in with the jamboree.
