RE: Avian Influenza in the UK

in #homesteading7 years ago

Thanks for this post. Only yesterday we saw a programme (on BBC2) about young farmers who started from scratch and were entered for the National Farming prize for Newcomers in another category. Five hopefuls shared their stories and they were heartwarming. All had a passion for farming and they should all have won! It was won by a young man city born (Manchester) who has done so well with work and development that he's amazing, he also has a young wife and 3 young children. One of these enterprising Farmers had thousands of free range chickens. I can only imagine what they will be going through, as you will be. Let's keep positive and hope that it will be contained and blow over in a very short time. The problem with ministries is that they tend to get their messages mixed! Good luck with all your endeavours.

Thank you and thank you for your vote. There does seem to be a more positive attitude towards AI this year and the strain is less virulent than last so hopefully all will be well.
