HOME FOOD PRODUCTION. Joint Note by Minister of Agriculture and Fisheries, S/S Scotland and S/S Home Affairs and Minister of Food circulating Draft Public Announcement.

20 Nov 1940

HOME FOOD PRODUCTION DRAFT PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT. The Government has decided that a further increase in home food production is vital. The nation requires increased home production of certain agricultural products. Of these, crops suitable, if necessary, for human consumption are the most important among the arable products, and milk among the livestock products. The Ministers responsible for agriculture in England and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, have considered with the Minister of Food whether such a further increase could be promoted by extending the guarantee given to the agricultural community as to the future stability of their industry.
