Partly because the French like it that way as they have many small unprofitable farms. As a consequence we end up with grain barons, usually Tory nobs, that have large, highly profitable farms, getting wallops of cash as well as the small hill farms. Out of the CAP we would be in control. We could chose who gets the subsidies.
