Prince Charles, in theory, could be successful in just about anything he put his mind to. In addition, he's a noteworthy figure in Wales - and many parts of the world, to boot - so you'd imagine that he'd be able to support anything and bring it to a higher level of success. Try as he might, though, not every goal that he can accomplish can have the most golden of results. This has been the case, most recently, as he took it upon himself to make something out of farming organically.
According to an article on TIME.com, Prince Charles of Wales had to close down his business which was run by farming organically. The reasons given were the rising prices of the crops along with the falling trade. This is a shame because it seemed like an honest farming effort, as crops were grown in on the estate's Duchy Home Farm before being sold to the public. A noble effort of course and I think that networks like Colle Farmers Market could agree that potential existed, at least initially.
The government in the U.K. was not that stellar, either, and I think that it ultimately played a part as well. The article spoke about this to some degree, as it's been said that 2008 was not a great year for the area. It was a time when a financial crisis was seen and I think it's apparent that the area did not fully bounce back from such a crisis. I believe that it can be restored to its past glory but it is seemingly taking more time than what many individuals had anticipated.
I think that stores have the ability to attain profits but they have to be seen thanks to the correct usage of merchandise. Crops have to be priced in the right way or else people are not going to invest in them as readily as they might have been able to if the situation existed. Money is an important point for many people these days since budgets seem to be exceptionally tight. People have to support themselves and their loved ones, meaning that costs have to be taken into consideration.
It's a shame that Prince Charles's foray into the area of farming organically did not pan out the way that he expected because I think that there is a great deal of potential here. To me, I think it shows that he has the resources but the actions done afterward were not the best. People cannot afford to buy crops if they aren't priced in the right ways. I'm not saying that everything should come dirt cheap but more affordable rates could come into play.
