A lot of problems in the food and beverage market because the supermarkets docs become far too powerful. The fact that some supermarkets llechio apples / tomatoes off because they're the wrong shape entirely hyrt.
If the farmers have less seriously than the cost of producing it, why the hell do they remain in the industry? In every other industry, they'd be giving up the ghost. Another case of farmers have been ruined by grants, while every other industry is forced to break the coat according to the cloth, docs I think.
I see your point, William, but I disagree. Yes, other industries have to cut the coat according to the cloth, these days in particular, because of falling demand for their product docs / service in these years of recession. But to my knowledge, there is greater demand for milk now than it was 5 years ago, but there is so much power by a very small number of firms supermarkets, they are pushing docs prices down, there is a decline in demand . I'd rather ii price of the product - milk - reflect the true cost of producing milk, transporting the milk, the milk and the retail milk treated with some profit to the producer, the carrier and the retailer along the way. If that would mean that the price of a pint of milk will rise 50%, or even double, so be it. I would then choose to pay that price, or eat / drink less milk if I want. I would have to cut my coat according to my mrethyn then.
And in that respect, you've got a point regarding the disposal grants too. This was done in New Zealand. It has been difficult for the farmers for a time, but since then the industry has substantially strengthened, and one of the best performers in the country's economy.
The thing is, there are hundreds, if not thousands, of dairy farmers have quit over the past twenty years. There was a time when it would keep 50 good milking becomes a living and pretty good for someone. Now, we need herds in the hundreds of buildings and equipment and the most modern to try to make a profit from milk-and 'these are not always popular' good 'nimbys'. The reason Penna 'for the low price is that the supermarkets have always selling milk at a loss (whatever' Loss Leader 'in Welsh) in order to attract customers. That's a big problem that the buyer cultivation-price control, not the seller.
It must have been someone I've thought about this before, but unless unions could work together and negotiate on
