Implications for the future
FIRST may I say that our thoughts go out to you who have foot-and-mouth disease on your farms.
Never despair; remember that when one door closes another one always opens.
My next is a question to all those out there in the general public.
What do you want of us? As a small tenant farmer on an arable/dairy farm, I am forced to produce more and more for less and less until eventually Ill retire.
We shall end up with factory-sized farms producing factory-style food.
Surely there must be a better way? And please dont tell me its simply supply and demand, and if so, let it be on your conscience as well as ours that your food is produced this way.
