HC Deb 30 June 1938 vol 337 c2150W
Mr. De la Bère

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether the Government will consider giving a long-term arable policy to farmers, with a fixed price for wheat, for, say, 10 years?

Mr. W. S. Morrison

As I stated in reply to a somewhat similar question by my hon. Friend on 27th June, the whole agricultural policy of the Government is designed,inter alia, to stimulate arable cultivation. I would refer my hon. Friend in particular to the provisions of the Wheat Act, 1932, and the Agriculture Act of last Session.
