[QUOTE="Hindsight, post: 6620487, member: 3169"] Giving farmers this cash is a blunderbuss approach. Bear with me. A proportion (and we can debate that proportion separately) goes to the supplier of the land, through rent or as reward for ownership of land, for owner occupiers. Lets say I owned a field which you rented from me. You would be a farmer, salt of the earth, toiling to produce food, good fella, and submit a BPS form to receive £220 hectare. That you then hand over to me as rent for the joy of farming. Lets say then that I do not invest any of that back in the land. I do not frequent tractor dealers locally or sheep bit suppliers. No I take that money and buy a ferrari from a shop in Leicester and live in my Swiss chalet - as you can see I have dreams! So what is the payment to land truly achieving. 4000 words for week after next please! [/QUOTE]
