HC Deb 19 May 1976 vol 911 cc526-7W
Mr. Crawford

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what was the annual total value of food produced in England and Wales during the latest year for which figures are available.

Mr. Bishop

The value before manufacture or distribution of food produced in the United Kingdom, including landings of fish by British vessels, was £3,636 million in 1974–75.I regret that a separate figure for England and Wales is not available.
