Graeme also indicated that UK producers are prepared to export meat and the Council is helping to maintain the health and the welfare of animals to guarantee a good product.
Additionally, during the interview Ad asked about how is Brexit affecting them? Graeme considered that due to the Brexit they have experimented with many difficulties with a drop even in the exports and imports of poultry meat.
Brexit has been very difficult, there is no just getting way from reality. It has not delivered for the UK poultry industry what which the government probably expected to be delivered and it just brought a lot of frustration, Said Graeme.
