Sustainable Food
We could say we want "Food for Sustainabilty" - ie food that is healthier
for people and the planet, and that all subsidies should encourage just
that. That which markets manifestly fail to deliver.
So - as a start, subsidies should encourage the following:
For health: More vegetables, more fruit, more fish oil, lower
additives/pesticide residues, less sugar/salt and end food poverty.
For planet: More seasonally grown local vegetables, more diverse
temperate fruit, more fish farms to organic standards, much less
fertilser, less food miles, and less animals.
This is much better than having intensive production of cheap food,
but wasting millions of hectares of land eg ¾ million  hectares of UK
land is “set aside”reat chunks of rough grazing.
Farmers would get back to producing food - that is healthier for all, rather
than making picture postcards for urban radicals. Much more at
