[QUOTE="DrWazzock, post: 7604897, member: 2119"] If “squeezing dry” means getting every litre of milk you can, every grain of wheat, every sugar beet, every lamb, every wisp of hay then yes we do that, because if we don’t do that we waste the resources used to produce those products and waste is very bad for the environment and my ability to earn enough to live on from a smallish area of land. I can see the agenda that rich Tory donors are likely to benefit most from the way government funding is going. Funding will be used to embellish country amenity estates ( in fact it already has been doing that for about 30 years) with the features these folk see as desirable : rewilding, herbaceous borders, and that kind of extravagance that you believe to be a good thing when you already have loads of money, don’t need to earn a living, don’t give a stuff about whether food supplies are either secure, sustainable or affordable and couldn’t care less about rural communities, seeing them as a hindrance to the expansion of your sporting estate.
