For as long as I remember farmers have been complaining about how hard done to they are. They do get fairly generous subsidies and don't have to pay business rates etc.

 

I really don't know what more they want...

I sympathise with them because as individuals they are powerless o stand up to the big boys but they must belong to an organisation that can create some havoc. If I was not happy with the money I got for my logs I don't think I would buy them and give them away. Who is that hurting exactly ? Who is even more out of pocket.
