HC Deb 21 July 1970 vol 804 c66W
Mr. Maginnis

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he is aware of the fall in food production from farms in England and Wales; and what steps he intends to take to remedy the situation.

Mr. Anthony Stodart

Production of some commodities has fallen over the last few years but production of others, notably poultry meat, pigmeat and milk, has increased.

We are assessing the resources which are available, and my right hon. Friend will take whatever action is appropriate.
