[QUOTE="farmerm, post: 7749517, member: 7195"] To be fair to Guy, part of our fight here should really be with AIC not RT, it is AIC who have created this two tier system that treats domestic growers with contempt and mistrust whilst waving in any and all imports at the stroke of a pen. RT just milk it for all they can but are to blame for imposing additional burdens on producers that go far beyond UK law. Basically it all comes down to the fact that the entire assurance industry is one big cartel. If domestic grains where allowed through the same joke standards that apply to goods coming in though the FEMAS gateway scheme RT and the other farm assurance bodies would be mortally wounded. The situation is now such that the gateway scheme does very much undermine the principle of source assurance given how far they are from where RT farm standards now are! (see FEMAS note below) What is AIC valued at? If we all put our RT subs for one year in a pot could we not buy out a controlling share, unlock the FEMAS gateway to domestic traders and end this two tier bulls**t [ATTACH type="full"]985965[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]985964[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]985968[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]985980[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
