[QUOTE="Clive, post: 7430417, member: 6"] If mills do not accept it you get the CMA in involved and they start getting heavy with them - there are laws that already maybe being broken here and certainly would be if "equal to import" was not accepted there should be no lower price - price is determined by global markets, RT doesn't currently offer any premium on cereals, if it could do in the future then there would still be a place for it maybe .................... can't see it on cereals myself however No need for a mill to store separately - RT wheat is mixed with imports that are not RT in both animal and human consumption unless RT could create a genuine premium for higher-level assured cereals (something they have failed to do in 20 yrs now ) the standard would simply disappear on cereals The question is when imports carry no farm-level assurance at all - what exactly do RT think they will need to inspect (and charge for) on our UK farms to be "equal to imports" ? - at most IMO its should a self-cert desktop exercise at minimal cost ...................... that would still be over and above what is done (and currently accepted) at farm level on imports [/QUOTE]
