I would like to object to this development, I do not believe it is right that the UK should be depend on importing so much of our basic foodstuffs, which we are capable of growing here. During my farming career, I seen the decline of production of home produced to a level which must not be allowed to decline further. The land which it is proposed to use for this project is good arable land capable of producing high yields. With irrigation will grow high value vegetable and salad crops, foods which we are all being encouraged to consumed. Although one reads that after many years the land could come back to agriculture, this will be difficult to achieve, due the structures which on it, concrete and roads.
