Message | Rt Hon Alwyn Windsor MP, MInister of Food and Agriculture Mr Speaker, since greater farm size is associated with greater economies of scale, this is a regressive law that is holding Hutorian farming back. All Hutorians will be richer with fewer and larger farms. That will push prices down and make food available far more cheaply, whilst still maintaining farms as commercial propositions. |
