[QUOTE="Andy Nash, post: 8730385, member: 81262"] [B]It[I]’s ok Neil, I’m on the case now.[/I][/B] Agreed, I would say it goes back at least 3 centuries, certainly since the Industrial Revolution when industrial output was far more important than agricultural output and continuing today when food comes from supermarkets. It has never worked long term and as you say, it will take a shock to the system to change that policy. Until it does happen, I would like to keep our green fields and hills with stock grazing, rather than Sitka plantations and thorny scrub. I would like to be a member of a farming union that values these things and is prepared to fight to try to keep things going until this plant based craze burns itself out. [/QUOTE]
