Our response is straight-forward - we ask that more support be given to those farmers and communities who wish to move away from farming animals toward plant-based farming and diets. In a UK context, it is well demonstrated that such approaches are socially and economically sustainable and can reduce the need for fertile land, fresh water and fossil fuel energy by a factor of three compared to the typical UK 'meat-and-dairy' based farming and diets.
With appropriate resources, locally adapted stock-free farming and plant-based diets can help communities to achieve food sovereignty.
