[QUOTE="kiwi pom, post: 3563766, member: 946"] Just curious, how do you know they're using it as a loss leader if you don't know what they pay for it? You say supermarkets only buy NZ lamb to screw over UK farmers. Again how do you know that? Yes maybe its cheaper (I have no idea) but maybe there are other reasons. Maybe quality is more consistent. Maybe their research suggests the brand sells better, how do you know more British lamb will be sold if Kiwi lamb was banned? Maybe its just easier to go to say silver fern farms and say we want x tonnes a month at this spec for this price and under their assurance scheme, (which they have) Its easy to blame supermarkets greed all the time but is that the whole story? Seems to me that farmers from all over the world are up against it. Anyone that thinks Kiwi sheep farmers are rolling in money should probably come for a visit. [/QUOTE]
