[QUOTE="T Hectares, post: 6159740, member: 2522"] I think a lot of this has happened hand in hand with the rise of FBT's and CFA's, the hamster wheel was increased in size mainly by Land agents and advisors who pushed for bigger rents and returns to clients, and ultimately themselves, Chem companies gladly fed this appetite and good old sustainable practices were forgotten to feed this desire, machinery got more and more expensive, black grass and csfb etc exploded on the back on these practices and now we are where we are. The thing is, research has always been around on lower input farming, I remember TAG or ARC as it was doing lots of this when Wheat was £60/t in the early 2000's, it just didn't fit the high pressure/low return lots of US had gotten into Just my very humble opinion :) [/QUOTE]
