>> They can literally "dump" surplus production. Without wishing to sound like the forum pedant, I don't think you mean
'literally'. If they sell it below cost, it's 'virtually' dumped, If they
actually piled it up in pile and burnt it, then it would be 'literally'
dumped. And in fact I think the EEC had a history of doing just that? Something about
Bobby Geldof giving Maggie Thatcher a hard time at some formal function about dumping
buttermilk instead of sending it to Africa? Anyone remember the history of
this? It was BI (Before Internet), so it's a bit hard to track down ..
