...while British farms are being bought as fast as possible by investment bankers to plant trees. When God knows how many thousands of acres of crops are going in to biomass boilers.
I'm no expert on world grain markets but seems thats extreme weather is affecting supply along with soaring demand from China. A couple more droughts here and there and it could get even shorter.
What will people think when(not if) we see shortages pushing prices sky high while 10s of thousands of acres have been lost to rewilding and other so called eco projects?
Will they blame the government? Blame farmers? Blame livestock farmers for feeding grain to animals?
