		Mr K complained that MAFF had been unreasonable regarding the evidence that they required from him in support of his application to change the status of a field in order that it might be eligible under the arable area payments scheme.
		MAFF acknowledged that Mr K had gone to great lengths to try to produce the evidence required but have decided that that evidence does not suffice because it is neither primary documentation nor field specific.
		MAFF considered those statements but said that they could not reconsider their decision on Mr S's disallowed claim without further contemporaneous evidence of the land's eligibility such as cropping records; aerial photographs; or satellite imagery.

		MAFF used Clementine's neural networks and rule induction algorithms to find patterns in data that help predict potentially harmful chemicals found in food.
		MAFF accomplishes this is by studying chemicals or food ingredients and whether they are likely to affect the people and animals who consume them.
		Since much data describing the toxicity of chemicals exists and MAFF must continually investigate thousands of chemicals used as flavourings and preservatives, it had to determine the most efficient means to help its scientists assess toxicity.

	Maff 'masks' true foot and mouth tally
		Maff also faces a backlash over the number of farms where livestock were slaughtered but are now known to have been disease-free.
		Last week's Maff figures show about 450 of the 1,579 so-called confirmed ca-ses returned negative results in subsequent laboratory tests.This means the figures used to show the spread of the disease are unreliable, and confirms claims that models used to control the epidemic were flawed because they overestimated the likely number of cases.
		Maff yesterday announced proposals for a licensing scheme from June 1 to control the movement of sheep shearers from infected to disease-free areas.

	Pigswill, lies, evasion - and why it's MAFF that must be put down
		For MAFF, the ministry that gave us the human form of mad cow disease - and has so comprehensively bungled the foot-and-mouth crisis - has now been caught allowing pigs to be fed to pigs.
		And yet MAFF, in the words of last year's official Phillips inquiry into the BSE crisis, 'followed an approach whose object was sedation'.
		The plan is to replace MAFF with a new Department of Rural Affairs, responsible for both agriculture and the countryside as a whole, taking on the rural duties of the Department of Transport, Environment and the Regions.

	Maff chief regrets 'medieval' pyres \| Special reports \| Guardian Unlimited
		Michael Tas, Maff director of disposal operations, told Devon farmers that pyres of animal carcasses - which were criticised for emitting potentially carcinogenic chemicals - were badly outdated.
		Dr Tas is one of Maff's most senior officials and a regular member of the government committee which handles the day to day efforts to fight the outbreak.
		Anthony Gibson, regional director of the NFU in the south west, said it was "entirely correct" that Maff had no plans for the scale and speed of the outbreak.

		At 6 a.m., while Wilson was facing down MAFF officials with her affidavit, Strang was on the phone rousting a clerk of the High Court in Edinburgh from his bed to file an interim interdict — a temporary injunction to stop the action.

		The Government is being urged to abolish MAFF, keep the environmental and transport link in the DETR and move its regional and local government functions to a new Department of Constitutional Affairs.
		Speaking at the ippr today, Stephen Tindale said that MAFF responsibilities are currently contradictory and should be split, with countryside and fisheries protection going to DETR and sponsorship of agriculture going to DTI.
		Moving the regulatory functions from MAFF and DTI to the DETR would strengthen the Department sufficiently for the removal of its local government function, resulting in a serious department for a heavy weight Minister to run.
