Traditional Cattle Breeds: And How to Keep Them
A superb volume which explains about rarer, non-intensively farmed cattle. If you see the future of farming in this country as being the stewardship of traditional breeds which have a growing market due to the increasing number of consumers who now care what they eat and are prepared to pay a little extra for that quality.
It means that farmers can survive profitably rather than seeing a life's toil end up in another farm sale. This book really does what it promises in the title and many thanks to Mr. King not just for the helpful advice but also for the fascinating backgrounds to the breeds currently making a come back. Read this book if you are a farmer disillusioned with your role as a punchbag for the supermarkets or if you are simply interested in the survival of breeds which are part of our natural heritage.
