Comment: So far, so good for us in UK's  plan for  food and drink sector

Forging the strongest economic links with European neighbours, as well as close friends in North America, the Commonwealth, and other partners around the world, is part of the UK government’s action plan for its food and drink sector up to 2020.

By then, the UK will probably have left the EU.

However, the plan indicates that one of the sector’s most ambitious targets is to send more exports to Germany, at the heart of the EU.
