[QUOTE="gone up the hill, post: 3640472, member: 1048"] Do you ever questions put directly to you?? Clear NO.............:whistle::whistle::whistle: All you seem intent on doing is increasing farmers costs and red tape for NO gain for the farmer.. How the hell is that being positive for the industry?? Farm assurance ISNT voluntary, if your fhinshing anything over a handful of animals a year then you have no choice but be assured and quite clearly the RT company's short and long term aim is to introduce WLA and make you only buy assured feeds so if that's your idea of voluntary then you live in a very strange world!! Very few supermarkets are not now using the RT logo on produce because take Tesco for example they label UK and NZ lamb in identical packaging and its all thrown in the same chiller space, reason they don't highlight the RT logo is because they want as little info on UK meat as poss so that shoppers will pick up a joint of the cheaper bought NZ lamb without realizing its not UK lamb until they get home. Some 27 month old cattle were FA at sedge today, size of a 10 week old calve, plastered in sh!t, thin as a bone, makes a complete mockery of the whole FA scheme and the rules. Being good at paperwork doesn't make someone a good farmer yet that is all RT care about and this basically sums up how useless the current scheme has become. [/QUOTE]
