HC Deb 16 February 1944 vol 397 c178
50. Mr. Mathers

asked the Minister of Food the amount of unmillable wheat produced annually in this country and say for what purpose it is utilised; and whether it will be arranged for this grain to be allotted to poultry farmers.

Colonel Llewellin

The amount of unmillable wheat produced annually in this country depends so much upon weather and other conditions that it is impossible to give an average figure. Of such unmillable wheat as there is; some is retained by the growers to feed their own poultry and other stock, and the rest is distributed through the rationing scheme, mainly to keepers of poultry.
