[QUOTE="neilo, post: 7855295, member: 348"] All of the stuff in Farm Assurance that has any relevance to crop (or animal) safety is already a legal requirement. Non-assured produce is no less safe. That ‘dodgy s**t’ can just as easily happen whether assured or not, as anyone doing it would be unlikely to record it. They could still be breaking the law though, FA or not. Everything RT insist on above those legal requirements is just window dressing, adding nothing to food safety. Does the trade value that window dressing? I doubt it, or they would insist on similar provenance on all imported produce too. We already have to compete on price with imported cereals. [/QUOTE]
