HC Deb 18 January 1993 vol 217 c83W
Dr. Strang

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will publish figures of average farm incomes for all farms and mostly sheep farms, distinguishing between severely disadvantaged and disadvantaged areas, for the most recent available year.

Mr. Gummer

Details of farm incomes in 1990–91 for all types of farm are contained at table 4.2 in "Farm Incomes in the United Kingdom" (1992 edition). Details of incomes for sheep farms during 1990–91 and the two subsequent years in the less favoured areas are contained in table 21 of the statistical data prepared for the 1992 autumn review of the economic conditions in the hills and uplands. Copies of both the sources referred to are in the Library of the House.
