[QUOTE="Dave645, post: 8638033, member: 55822"] [URL]https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/groceries-supply-code-of-practice/groceries-supply-code-of-practice[/URL] it would seem to me well drawn contracts can avoid most of these rules, and that a system that created industry wide standard contracts, with retailers could protect the farmer from the majority of the loopholes they employ. the very fact we are fragmented and they deal with individual farms gives them free rain to get around most of the protections these codes of practice suggest, as nearly every rule has a clause if the contract allows for this. . . you signed a bad contract. . . if retail were forced into a national contract system that was balanced for both them and the suppliers, then it would be a step forward, especially if they include fair trade clauses.
