The people around me who have allotments have been threatend with loosing their allotment if they do not grow food on it. In years gone by the council were not really bothered but this year..... grow food or else!

Knowledge of harder times in store?

Dig for economic victory?

Could be. They may want to prioritise allocation to those who want to grow food rather than people who want to keep sky rats.

But "sky rats" stuffed and roasted (with proper seasoning, of course) are good too... :D
