Agriculture

Proceeding contribution from Chris Bryant (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 2 December 2020. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Agriculture.

I am grateful to be enticed. Yes, the Secretary of State suggested to me that those affected should all move over to beef. The truth, as far as I can see, is that first, that is difficult to achieve on most Welsh mountains and, secondly, it is not exactly an environmentally friendly direction of travel. More importantly, did my hon. Friend catch the intimation from the Minister that if this produce is not going to be able to be sold, because of tariffs within the European Union, basically all that additional produce will just be burnt?
