[QUOTE="Grass And Grain, post: 7856504, member: 23184"] I don't know. What I do know is they were in a meeting together the other week. I'd be surprised if decisions were made independently, but then RT's statememt is suggesting they are asking AIC to change their rules. I'd say RT benefit financially from the AIC rules, and AIC benefit financially from the RT rules. And farmers end up paying for it all. Back in Feb I asked AIC if they would change their rules. iirc I've got an email where they said they'd have to consult at the various fothcoming farm assurance meetings. That suggests to me they don't make their own decisions independently, but are influenced by the farm assurance bodies. Don't know if that's perfectly reasonable (or not). Will be interesting to see if they allow reasonable access for UK growers through a sensible method that works for UK farm sizes. Or will they offer something which is clearly uneconomic for small farmers to do, and then say "oh dear, that's rather expensive, you can do that if you like, or the alternative is RT." [/QUOTE]
