Set up of Laurence Olins, Chairman of British Summer Fruits industry association 15. Close of strawberry 16. Olins eating strawberry 17. SOUNDBITE (English) Laurence Olins, Chairman of British Summer Fruits industry association: "Deny that labour, fruit growers will reduce and restrict their businesses and the smaller growers will go out of business, totally. The larger growers, and they are already doing this, are farming overseas. They won't move their land for obvious reasons, but they will move their skill, their capital and their expertise. And we've got UK growers who are growing in Poland, South Africa, France, Poland now. They certainly will do it in the future if there is a restriction here. But there is also the uncertainty factor. Growers have to plan 2-3 years ahead in buying their plants and their trees, and I know growers who stopped expanding because they can't put an order in for their trees or plants, because they don't know whether they will have labour in 2018 and 2019 to pick that crop, so already we will see the effect." 18. Wide of apple orchard 19. Pan of applies 20. Robert Rendall, 38, managing director of Peake Fruit and director of Boxford Farms 21. Rendall eating apple 22. SOUNDBITE (English) Robert Rendall, managing director of Peake Fruit and director of Boxford Farms: "We are so reliant on our migrant workforce because, you know, the crop ripens and needs to be harvested when it needs to be harvested. We can't wait for Monday morning to do that so we need that labour. If we don't have that labour, we don't get that crop harvested, then the higher value jobs – the processing jobs, the sales jobs, the logistics jobs – don't exist. We don't have that home grown produce, we don't have the industry that surround that and brings that to market. So yeah, there is a whole industry reliant on this migrant labour." 23. Close of apples London - 24 August 2016 24. Set up shot of Emily Lydgate, UK Trade Policy Observatory, University of Sussex 25. SOUNDBITE (English) Emily Lydgate, UK Trade Policy Observatory, University of Sussex: "I think the simple answer is that labour standards are quite low and it's very hard work, it involves a lot of physical labour and low wages, so there is just not a lot of interest amongst Brits in taking up these jobs to the extent that when there are labour shortages and temporary migrants don't come in sufficient numbers the harvest will literally rot on the trees."
