[QUOTE="DrWazzock, post: 7065662, member: 2119"] Seriously though do these people who give these lectures realise the amount of work that goes on quietly across the country producing and delivering the huge amount of foodstuffs needed to keep the population alive? Do they realise this is an essential service often performed under difficult conditions, physical, mental and financial. Shouldn’t they really ought to be sitting back a minute and realising our agricultural industry actually is of tremendous value and didn’t really ought to be tinkered with, scaled down or jeopardised in any way or sacrificed on the high altar of some kind of “nature knows best” ideology. The concept of a “reset” amuses me too. Agriculture isn’t an iPad or some other computer operating system, it’s been built on thousands of years of steady progress which must not be thrown away by some sort of tearing down and rebuild on a naive and ideological political agenda. we are making steady progress on many fronts in agriculture including carbon footprints, conservation and other important areas. I’d rather see continued steady progress than some radical new “reset” that blows the whole thing out of the water. They need to keep it real and keep it grounded IMO. [/QUOTE]
