    Sound bites from the forum ….

    A selection of comments from today’s Farm Business Dairy Forum

    Need to sell ‘wildlife disease control’ not the term badger culling to general public

    Britain could become a dumping ground for European milk products

    How do we help the general public understand big is not bad

    Tell consumers how good milk truly is

    Attitudes need to change farmers need to forward plan

    Negotiate from a position of strength not at times of weakness

    Retailers push small farms with their marketing then act in a way that puts them out if business

    Average tenancy is 3 years bit enough to get return on investment

    We need to look at export opportunities and own a share of the brands

    No farmers on local planning authorities any more

    Farmers feel trust and integrity missing from the processor and retailer

    Need to plan for currency fluctuations

    New entrants should consider farmshare opportunities
