Farmers stage protest at Tesco against falling lamb prices
Scores of angry North Wales farmers swooped on two Tesco supermarkets this evening in protest at rock-bottom lamb prices .
An estimated 80 producers targeted the retailer’s Bangor store after driving in convoy along the A55.
Another group of fed-up farmers arrived en mass at the Tesco store in Llandudno Junction.
Many held placards and waved banners while some went inside to check the meat aisles for New Zealand lamb.
Anger in the farming community has reached boiling point over falling lamb prices and imports have been blamed for deepening the crisis.
Lambs are typically £20-£30 down per head on the start of the year, resulting in farmgate prices that aren’t covering the cost of their production
