HC Deb 16 April 1934 vol 288 c699
19. Mr. HALL-CAINE

asked the Minister of Agriculture the approximate difference between the amount actually received by British farmers during 1933 for wheat and the amount they would have received had they been paid the prevalent world price?

Dr. BURGIN

As regards the cereal year beginning 1st August, 1932, the figure asked for by my hon. Friend is represented approximately by the deficiency payments to registered growers under the Wheat Act, 1932, which amounted to £4,510,946.
