We are glad to note that you are keen to stimulate economic opportunities in the district, specifically taking into account the needs of land based industries that help conserve and enhance the countryside (paragraph 6.25). Within farming securing producers with local outlets reduces food miles and encourages viability of less productive land (ie flower rich meadows, small fields bounded by hedgerows).
