Butter, Cheese and Beef

HC Deb 18 July 1972 vol 841 c61W

28. Mr. Winterton

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food by how much the production in the United Kingdom of butter, cheese and beef is likely to increase in 1973.

Mr. Anthony Stodart

British production of butter, cheese and beef is likely to increase significantly, assuming normal weather, but it is too soon to give precise figures for 1973. Entry to the Common Market will provide British producers with opportunities for further expansion.
