AGRICULTURE GREEN PAPER (25 March 2018)

Motion Details

That this House welcomes the Government's new Green Paper on agriculture; notes the lack of any serious mention of food, which is the industry's main product; notes that the UK is increasingly becoming less and less self-sufficient, importing almost all its food from abroad; and calls on the Government to re-think it's plan for farming to look at how the UK continues to feed itself.
