How can the interim chair of Red Tractor (RT) begin to rebuild trust and confidence when, in the FG article last week (鈥楻ebuilding confidence is top priority for new Red Tractor chair, July 5), he belittled the value of auction marts, was condescending to the views of his own sector board, was patronising to family farmers, commented 鈥榠f the Greener Farms Commitment was reintroduced' and was confident that RT 鈥榳ould always be the premier assurance scheme'.
If Red Tractor is to survive it needs to change, but it appears the current chair just does not get it.
