[QUOTE="som farmer, post: 7547091, member: 86168"] time to adapt or get out. Very harsh words, which are, unfortunately, absolutely correct. Farming is going through another period of change, to what, we don't really know, climate pattern change, and political change, more scary is the threat from imported food, and how that will effect our prices here. If we are incredibly lucky, the high prices seen for our products, are the result of brexit, the 'threat' of imported food, has been used by processors to keep prices down, it may be, that threat is rather hollow, and costs of imported, adds up, meat exports to the EU are down by a third, as our lamb was exported, why are prices still so high ? I think l will sit tight, and wait for a 'bubble' to burst. But whatever happens, farming is going to alter, and we will have to adapt to those changes, we have no option, but where [USER=42914]@holwellcourtfarm[/USER] is saying, adapt or get out, the hard facts are true, but for any farmer that isn't prepared, or perhaps cannot, with prices where they are, they could come out on a high now, or wait till forced out, on a low, and it's a very very hard decision to make.
