Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mad as Fish" data-source="post: 143881" data-attributes="member: 396">Quaker are famed for their oats, and Ireland does produce good quality organic oats for use here and abroad. It is something we can do well, but, alas, hard milling wheats are a different story.It wouldn't just be a war that could cause disruption, tillage farmers have had a crap harvest this year and shortages would still exist.What the government has done over the years is encourage milk production at the expense of tillage as Ireland is a natural for it. Most of this milk is then exported as powder for baby formula, especially to China, but China is getting its act together and that market is likely to shrink.The biggest crime against farmers by the government was the closing down of the sugar beet industry, that was a huge loss to Irish agriculture.</blockquote>
