Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We understand that you want the Government to support British farmers, but it's not clear exactly what you want the Government to do to achieve this.

We have published a petition calling on the Government to Support British Food Producers by ensuring that marks of origin remain, which you might like to sign: Support British Food Producers by ensuring that marks of origin remain

If you want the Government to take other measures, such as increasing subsidies for UK farmers, or imposing tariffs on agricultural imports, you could start a new petition requesting this.
