Re: Another Urban Legend Bites the Dust (4.00 / 2)

I'm of the view that we're going to have dedicate more labour and a greater proportion of our incomes to food in the future, which isn't a bad thing and makes organic farming more practical.

Sounds about right.

I wonder weather this will make smaller farms finally viable, or be the thing that kills them off? (With EU rules my money is on the latter.)

What kinds of EU rules are we talking about?

Can the last politician to go out the revolving door please turn the lights off?

I'm just regurgitating the standard anti-CAP stuff.

(Hey, Andy CAP ... that would be a neat cartoon character. Uh-oh, here comes Maggie with the rolling pin!)

Well, in so far as the CAP subsidises large farms over small farms, it will tend to encourage "organic agribusiness".
