Our future must include self sufficiency and export in terms of food and water. We need put more and more effort utilising our land mass and resources, into building the capability to provide a large percentage of wholesome natural food for the world's markets. It plays to our potential strengths and exploits barriers existing for others. Food production technology, based on healthy products, should always be a strategic security and economic necessity for us. Russia keeps you healthy, should be our aim in this area. Let's keep the investment going into this sector and focus on producing high quality value for money products. We should aim to differentiate, and avoid the cheapest mentality of some western producers who face yield density issues, due to lack of resorces, resulting in a poorer quality substandard product. Time for us to move into food quality at fair value in higher quantities!
