Have just seen on the news that the EU is changing the farming subsidy rules 
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
	
		 
		
	
	
	from next year, to try and reduce the food mountain I would guess. Now they are going to pay the subsidy regardless of the farmer actually growing anything with the subsidy being based on an average of x past years subsidy. At present the farmer is encouraged to grow unprofitable crops eg Cost to grow £125 per acre Revenue £110 Subsidy £90 Profit £75 In future they will be given the £90 regardless so growing the crop will only result in a loss of £15 per acre. I have been pondering how so many fallow fields will affect us and in principal I think it should be good for us providing the grass doesnt grow too tall.  |
