[QUOTE="Grass And Grain, post: 7734486, member: 23184"] For the record, I like AHDB and get good value for money from the levy. And I like the move made by Paul Temple, his board and Martin Grantley-Smith. Taken funding away from RT, but held out the carrot and effectively said "we've got more funding available and waiting, you can have it if there's a specific project which develops things for levy payers". Presumably that's code for "provide a level playingfield, and give levy payers better market access, then we'll give funding back, keep it hush hush,no-one will know what's happened, everyone will be happy". It's just everyone now knows about it, and it's made the spat public. That's good, as all farmers will now understand what's been going on, that heaps the pressure on, and helps AHDB get good result for framers' market access, farmers happy, AHDB win ballot, everything good. That's the plan, but out of my hands to action it. Down to AIC, RT, NFU, AHDB. Hope they dont fluff it up! Surely they can't fluff it up, can they? [/QUOTE]
