13 December 1999 Hemp – strangled by Euro red tape In response to hemp argument (Subsidy cut for hemp and flax), I totally agree it is just another show of Euro red tape. Being a hemp grower


myself, I am appalled by this. After growing the crop this year and seeing the benefits to the enviroment and the land, I was quite prepared to grow the crop again. But with the new cuts


proposed, it makes the crop unviable. And I ask myselfk, will they make the same cuts in mainland Europe? What a shame! – I hope the proposals are rejected. * _ Glyn Jones, Shrewsbury Email:
