HRP: The current and future role of Farm Assurance Schemes

[OliviaBamber]

As part of my final year dissertation I am investigating the current and future role of Farm Assurance Schemes within the agricultural industry. I am looking to get views from all stakeholders within the supply chain. I would be very grateful if you could spare 5 minutes to complete my survey. Many Thanks in advance.

Tried to do your survey and cant
I’m a producer and not an end user
Can’t think that I’ve bought a Red Tractor product and there is no capacity to sidestep the click chart on the first page

Thank you for your feedback, i have updated the questionnaire to farmer/producer perspective, in regards to the ranking chart on the first page it is just in terms of general food products not specifically red tractor. Thank you

The site is down.

Your research is timely! There is a massive backlash against Red Tractor at the moment, as I'm sure you've seen if you skim the forum topics.

They are all down at the moment. Researchers over the world are going mad!

Have RT managed to disable the site so they can skew the results I wonder?

The site is back up and running now if you would still like to put your views forward.

The responses so far have been interesting and with the RT standards under consultation and something that is very topical at the moment it has given me a real insight into the stakeholders perspective.

Description
In a corporation, a stakeholder is a member of "groups without whose support the organization would cease to exist", as defined in the first usage of the word in a 1963 internal memorandum at the Stanford Research Institute.

I am not sure the farmers who have been drawn into the Red Tractor protection racket qualify as stakeholders anyone than the pubs and clubs that came under the ‘protection’ of the Krays were. ( other mob and mafia organisations are available)

Edit:Site stil,playing up unable to complete

Annoying that no more than 1 answer is allowed in a column,

Possibly none ?

I don't know, and this hasn't featured highly in the many threads on farm assurance. From what I do know, assurance schemes are very common in fresh produce. Many of the imports of meat are grown to retailer specifications eg. Danish bacon

Danish Crown has a simple assurance scheme, then an add-on for exporting to UK supermarkets. It's a 3 year scheme/inspection interval.
