'Some processors caught swimming with no trunks'

摘要

Last month's scaremongering suggesting the UK dairy industry was heading for Armageddon was dismissed by all but a minority of dairy farmers. There are tough times for some, admittedly, but no Armageddon.However, the English and Welsh Governments have been persuaded to launch dairy farmer hardship funds of up to E10,000, which was greeted by some farmers as disappointing, embarrassing and ill-conceived.Admittedly, on further enquiries, none of those commenting appear to be suppliers to either Freshways or Medina or others, and thus on the receiving end of them, so they are unlikely to represent the views of likely applicants.
