Preserving our unique
Cornish landscape and environment, whilst encouraging the rural economy
and creating new business opportunities in our communities is one of John's
commitments. He believes in the future for organic farming in our area
and how it can produce top quality Cornish produce with added value, that
will sell at premium prices. Using sustainable systems, without the use
of artificial fertilisers and pesticides, organic farming can create jobs
for Cornish people, produce wholesome and healthy food and preserve our
natural countryside and wildlife. John is calling on the Government to
support the policy, which aims to have 30% of agricultural land in organic
production or conversion by 2010.
