Food Industry Competitiveness

I am most grateful to my hon. Friend for mentioning NVZs and the increased capital costs faced by farmers, particularly dairy farmers. However, the milk industry is clearly part of a chain where the market is not working properly. Farmers cannot sell milk for a greater price than it takes to produce it. What is the answer to the problem of reviving the dairy industry in this country?
