What Has Happened To All Of Our Food?


One ray of light amongst the global recession is the rapid increase in farming. Farming across Great Britain has increased by a tremendous 36% since last year (2008) and is set to increase by an epic proportion.

In 2008 the UK was subject to a sudden rise in food prices. Each supermarket including the ‘mega saving’ supermarkets all added a slight increase onto their prices to make up for the lack of produce coming into the country. After all our farmers can no way supply food to the entire nation so we rely on imports from other countries. Therefore any food that is produced in this country is going to be quite expensive. The country is demanding too much produce and there are simply not enough farmers to be dealing with such an overwhelming demand.

The British government has recently committed to a new program for farmers to ultimately make all their expenses a lot cheaper. With a bit of luck this will help farmers from around the country to produce food for cheaper. Ideally we all want to see farmers care for our land as they seek to produce as much as possible, in a sustainable way and with high welfare standards. That’s the future we all want to see.

Could we be looking at a mass shortage in food across the country over the coming years? I sincerely hope not and I know that many people across the country would not want to give up their weekly takeaways for anyone.

So what can we do about it? Well, in my opinion that government has acted fast by developing new laws to lower expenses incurred by farmers ultimately making their lives easier to produce food for the nation. Yet the number of farmers is dramatically reducing in the country with hundreds of farms abandoned and not producing anything what so ever. Hopefully we will live through this little slump, I am sure it is nothing too serious but we will have to see what happens.
