[QUOTE="shumungus, post: 7217673, member: 55902"] In NI the most of the flak for the AD plants comes from the dairy men, for a very long time now they were the biggest kids in the playground when it came to buying and renting good crop growing land. Times have changed and a lot of them have been pushed out of land blocks by AD plants causing them to rent further afield in marginal areas pushing out some suckler and sheep men and using the excuse of being forced by the AD industry to do this. This in turn gets the suckler and sheep farmers riled. Attitude to AD in NI is different to the mainland also because the most of the plants are grass silage based as opposed to maize and beet.
