answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/02/2019 answer text <p>The UK is a net importer of many agricultural products including pigs, poultry and beef. The imposition of WTO tariffs in the event of leaving the EU without a deal will be lower on those sectors.</p><p> </p><p>The sheep sector exports 30% of production primarily to the EU so is more exposed. Currency adjustments are likely to mitigate some of the effects as well as food price inflation within the EU market for lamb but we anticipate there would still be negative impacts from a no deal exit for the sheep sector.</p> answering member constituency Camborne and Redruth answering member printed George Eustice question first answered 11/02/2019 13:26:57 answering member 3934 label Biography information for George Eustice
