British farming needs reform to take advantage of Brexit.

Farming is in crisis and our food security is at risk. Government subsidies force farmers to meet environmental targets instead of producing food. Fuel and fertiliser costs have spiralled. Farmers have to deal with huge amounts of paperwork. Farmland is being lost to re-wilding and solar farms. High energy costs and supermarket price fixing has pushed many farmers to bankruptcy. Rural communities are dying.
