Hi All
Attended a marketing metting Tues evening.
Guess what they are going to teach us to market like Tom.
So soon I too will be able to obtain a better than average low price just like him.
No ideas on how to get a higher price though.
There is a bit of EU politics you might be interested in.
The UK is not in the Euro so agriculture was given protection against large currency moves.
This amounts to £12/ha this year however our government has to claim this money before 31 Oct.
Money is funded 50%EU/50%UK but due to some earlier agreement UK government ends up paying 77%.
I am expected to lobby my MP. as they are reluctant to apply for this compensation this year. I wonder why??
I find BEGGING demeaning so they will have to manage without me.
I just want a fair price for my produce.
More pounds/tonne, more dollars/bu is this not the answer to all our problems.
Regards Ian
