(a) The exclusion of grass, hay and bulky fodder crops from the rationing calculations, and the device for giving farmers the benefit of the additional cereals and pulses grown in 1940, ensure that farmers who have responded to the Government's repeated injunctions to make themselves as self-supporting as possible will get the full advantage from their efforts; (b) the exclusion from the scheme of these supplies, together with the sugar beet pulp to which growers of sugar beet are entitled under their contract, and stocks of purchased feeding-stuffs already on the farms, will moreover ensure that there are considerable latent reserves which can be used to smooth out most of the inevitable minor inequalities.
