British farmers disadvantaged by EU membership, says UKIP

The vastly different types of agriculture across Europe mean that EU law is a compromise to the disadvantage of British farmers -- that's the view of a UKIP MEP. Norfolk farmer and local MEP, Stuart Agnew, believes that British farming would be better off outside the European Union. The UK on its own could deregulate and abandon rules which he says are holding our farmers back.
