Yep. pretty good summary, although he touched on it in the chapter on Ian Tolhurst, he's massively overlooked the biggest issue for commercial fruit and veg production, labour, there isn't enough to deal with whats grown now, the utopian idea of lots of little growers, creating lots of labour opportunities shows the naivety in all this, we've come a society of lazy feckers when it comes to hard physical work, very few want it!You see this is the issue: overzealous onlookers who think entire towns and cities can be fed from about 3 black bins worth of woodchip in some niche little dream of Olde Englande. Just some British veg and fruit for the masses. I see. So all the food waste stocks, all the green pasture land across the world, all the scrub and mountains, all that should just be left alone whilst everyone forks out £15 for an apple to feed the kids once a day. I guess the legions of brewers grains, sugar beet pulp, rapemeal, citrus pulp and the like should just be tipped in the sea for all the good it does.
He is a fudging dreamer and a waste of my time.
