Arable Farming: South Suffolk
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what assessment he has made of the potential impact of adverse weather conditions on arable farm output in South Suffolk constituency in each of the last three years.
Answered by Daniel Zeichner
There are multiple factors that influence arable production, for example farmers will make business decisions in response to market signals such as input and output prices, so we are unable to attribute what degree of change between years is solely as a result of the weather.
Unfortunately, we do not produce output statistics at a constituency level.
