HC Deb 07 February 1974 vol 868 c371W
62. Mr. J. H. Osborn

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, bearing in mind the cost of feeding stuffs and pressures on profit margins, what is his latest estimate of the effect on milk output, and beef production in total, and on marginal and hill farms six months and 12 months hence; and how this will differ from current production and production a year ago.

Mr. Godber

The matters are all currently under discussion in the annual review and can clearly be affected by the outcome of that review. In these circumstances it would not be right for me to comment at present.
