FOOD SHORTAGE

Anonymous writes - 

Britain’s union for farmers and growers has warned the UK is “sleepwalking” into a food supply crisis,

Ahead of an emergency press conference later today, the National Farmers Union (NFU) said the Government needed to step in to assist primary producers under severe strain from soaring fuel, fertiliser and feed costs.

Union president Minette Batters said egg shortages “could just be the start” as multiple farming sectors were impacted.

“Shoppers up and down the country have for decades had a guaranteed supply of high-quality affordable food produced to some of the highest animal welfare, environmental and food safety standards in the world,” Batters told the BBC.
