[QUOTE="Kiwi Pete, post: 4386362, member: 63856"] To be real honest, Dave, the main innovation I can see strangled from way over here isn't necessarily the farmer's own innovation - it's the lack of necessity for much better marketing, cooperatives, sales pitch to the supermarkets etc etc. (What I can do myself not everyone can do, I acknowledge that one..) But, it's keeping the status quo working (sort of) and that's the problem as I see it. Nothing [B]needs[/B] to change because it's sort of doing the job. That's my only opposition to it, at all! It could be a hell of a lot more in favour of the farmer being rewarded, but it isnt. It will need a big upset to force the sort of changes that are long overdue (IMO) because it's accepted as 'working well' for the industry - and you, the farmers look to be hurting :( not the supermarkets, not the unions or the marketing boards etc. I don't like that. They should be feeling the pinch, but they have domestic production pants down over a saw-horse. :mad: Money well spent. The established guys are scared to change too much, and the new guy can't get in. :mad: [/QUOTE]
