From the BBC:
Some farmers have said without long-term guarantees about future subsidy levels, farms could disappear from the landscape.
"We could be wiped out like the coal industry," said Roger Hobson, whose 4,500-acre farm near York qualifies for a subsidy worth £100,000 a year.
"What we fear is that in the future the farm industry will have to go to the government and compete for funding alongside the NHS and other public services."
