[QUOTE="DrWazzock, post: 7933379, member: 2119"] Problem is that tenants are already in a situation where they don’t really get BPS. It goes go the landowner as rent, possibly more besides. But what happens when BPS is removed? Removal of BPS, and it’s replacement with non farming schemes that don’t require a tenant or even a farmer could put many tenants out of business. I can’t sit here and just say I’m alright Jack, because I know those tenants are some of the most efficient hardworking businesses in agriculture and I can’t accept that just shrugging our shoulders is right. I half agree with what you say about a lot of things but this issue : undercutting of tenants mainly, is just plain wrong while diverting the cash to schemes that will actually generate very little benefit at all in comparison to what we have now. I get the carbon credits angle but why then does it need subsidy if it’s such a goer. Certainly subsidies need reform but under cutting agricultural tenants and telling them to sod off is completely unacceptable. [/QUOTE]
