'This all sounds like good stuff but if we continue to expect to be able to purchase cheap supermarket food and milk in this country then farming is surely going to get more industrialised.'

  1. I was disappointed to be in the position of having to reject an 'Anonymous' comment today. This was targeted against a particular individual in our village. The reason I moderated this comment, is that I believe it is time for reconciliation in our local community, following the opposing views about the super-dairy, so please refrain from posting these type of entries. Thank you.
