Report from the Sub-committee on Agriculture

 

 

Table 9.1
10 types of farm on clayey and sandy soil have been selected, as described in present production in a proposed agronomic 0-scenario, in which account is taken of how pest problems can be reduced. Economically optimised crop rotations have also been created for the 0-scenario. In the 0-scenario, yield and percentage loss are given in relation to present production. Contribution margin 2 is given as an average for the types of farm in present production and the 0-scenario. The figures for treatment frequency index (TFI) include set-aside land but not control of couch grass.
