[QUOTE="DrWazzock, post: 7859003, member: 2119"] So where are we heading then? Meat and veg but not potatoes, wheat or sugar? I have been reflecting on this as I complete my fertiliser plan. The only system here that would be remotely sustainable would be clover leys and sheep, maybe cattle as well with some barley in the rotation. All the rest, wheat, beet, potatoes etc need large amounts of non renewable resources and aren’t, when you think about it, that good for the population generally - well loads of carbohydrate doesn’t do me much good anyway.
