Howdy deirdyweirdy! As a former farmer this really pisses me off and it's largely the same here, the only one making good money have to be huge or a giant corporate farm operation.
The government better realize what they're doing is killing their own food production for the country.
Very interesting post but very sad and infuriating too!
I don't think the government cares much about the farmers. They'll just flood the market with cheap imported food and pass the carbon emissions problem onto someone else. Everything's just upside down and back to front.
It seems like if a politician ran who supported the farmers and local workers they'd win in a landside. The way it is they all need to be voted out!
