[QUOTE="texas pete, post: 6519185, member: 2880"] Farming is a way of life/hobby for many I think. The fact you can (sometimes) make a living out of it is often a bonus. The Gov't has financed the job one way or another since the war I suppose...a lot of the sentiment expressed is still a hangover from that....Oh and people often don't like having things taken away from them that they have got used to having. Big business's generally lobby governments, either as a collective or individually if they are large enough. It can be effective too, just look at the eat lancet mafia. Our industry could do with a good collective lobby group, something that could really influence decision makers, maybe even get some positive news on the good ole BBC too. A union of farmers perhaps, a national one even.:unsure: [/QUOTE]
