BALLEINE ON TUESDAY, JULY 29 1941. Jersey Evening Post, July 31, 1941. Every farm was an almost entirely self supporting institution. Things which could not be made at home, boots for example, were paid for in eggs or cider. The modern idea of farming for money was entirely unheard of. You farmed to produce what you and your family needed. The farmer kept a couple of oxen to draw his cart and plough a couple of cows for milk and butter, a fairly large flock of sheep, bred mainly for their wool and milk. His chief form of meat was pork. There were so many pigs in the island ...... Bear, William E. : Glimpses of Farming in the Channel Islands. Journal of Royal Agricultural Society of England. 1888.

[Website] I saw visions of mists rising from languid streams, their deep banks overhung with mosses and ferns, of thick and spreading English oaks in June with red-and-white spotted Alderney cows lying placidly in their shade, chewing cuds of rich English grass and clover and lazily twitching away flies with their tails.

The narrow limits of an Island, hitherto shut out from agricultural communication with the rest of the world, and too bigoted in long-rooted principles to think improvement possible, can evidently afford but little information to the agriculturist ... The same kind of plough, harrow and every implement of husbandry, used some centuries back, still exist; and though, upon the whole, the lands are clean and tolerably well cultivated, producing excellent crops of every kind, it is to be attributed more to the natural effect of a good soil, and much manual labour, than to any great ingenuity or improved management ..

Kemble Witnesses: Deputy J.A.N. Le Fondré of St. Lawrence Connétable G.W. Fisher of St. Lawrence Clerk to Committee: Mrs. J. Bell-Cook Mrs. C.E. Canavan (Chairman): Do you feel in a position this afternoon to raise points from this morning as well as answer the questions? Deputy J.A.N. Le Fondré of St. Lawrence: Yes, I think one or 2. Mrs. C.E. Canavan: Shall we deal with the questions first then? Connétable G.W. Fisher of St. Lawrence: John has made copious notes, I think. Mrs. C.E. Canavan: You have had the comment from the statement from Axis Mason about: “The existing properties in the vicinity are currently at risk from flooding and no proposals or funding for mitigation currently exist to enable the States to address the problem. The various scenarios identified by respondents regarding climate change and global warming will impact on existing properties around the site no matter what. The view that less or even no development is an improvement on this is simply burying one’s head in the sand. The simple fact remains that appropriate development of the site is currently the only route for funding construction of the service water pumping station and on site attenuation measures necessary to improve even the existing flood risk situation”. [Any] comments? The Connétable of St. Lawrence: Generally I do not think we have got any particular objection to that statement other than, of course, it is implying that in order to alleviate the situation of flooding in the area, which is a major concern for a lot of the residents who live in that area, then we have got to have a housing estate nearby so that we can afford to build a pumping station.

  • The Island Identity Policy Development Board Jersey's
    The Island Identity Policy Development Board Jersey’s National and International Identity Interim Findings Report 1 Foreword Avant-propos What makes Jersey special and why does that matter? Those simple questions, each leading on to a vast web of intriguing, inspiring and challenging answers, underpin the creation of this report on Jersey’s identity and how it should be understood in today’s world, both in the Island and internationally. The Island Identity Policy Development Board is proposing for consideration a comprehensive programme of ways in which the Island’s distinctive qualities can be recognised afresh, protected and celebrated. It is the board’s belief that success in this aim must start with a much wider, more confident understanding that Jersey’s unique mixture of cultural and constitutional characteristics qualifies it as an Island nation in its own right. An enhanced sense of national identity will have many social and cultural benefits and reinforce Jersey’s remarkable community spirit, while a simultaneously enhanced international identity will protect its economic interests and lead to new opportunities. What does it mean to be Jersey in the 21st century? The complexity involved in providing any kind of answer to this question tells of an Island full of intricacy, nuance and multiplicity. Jersey is bursting with stories to tell. But none of these stories alone can tell us what it means to be Jersey. In light of all this complexity why take the time, at this moment, to investigate the different threads of what it means to be Jersey? I would, at the highest level, like to offer four main reasons: First, there is a profound and almost universally shared sense that what we have in Jersey is special.

  • Factors Affecting First Lactation Performance of Sahiwal Cattle in Pakistan
    Arch. Tierz., Dummerstorf 51 (2008) 4, 305-317 1Department of Animal Breeding and Genetics, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad, Pakistan 2Institute of Animal Nutrition and Feed Technology, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad, Pakistan 3Research Centre for Conservation of Sahiwal Cattle, Jhang, Pakistan 4Department of Livestock Management, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad, Pakistan ZIA UR REHMAN1, M. SAJJAD KHAN1, SHAUKAT ALI BHATTI2, JAVED IQBAL3 and ARSHAD IQBAL4 Factors affecting first lactation performance of Sahiwal cattle in Pakistan Abstract To study the environmental and genetic factors affecting productive and reproductive traits, data on 5,897 cows from five main recorded herds (for 1964-2004) of Sahiwal cattle in Pakistan were used. A general linear model was applied on the data. The 305-day milk yield, total milk yield, lactation length, age at first calving, dry period, calving interval and service period averaged 1,393 ± 12 kg, 1,429 ± 11 kg, 235 ± 2, 1,390 ± 4, 244 ± 3, 464 ± 3 and 1,78 ± 3 days, respectively. The age at first calving was effected by herd, year and season of birth. The 305-day and total milk yields were affected by herd, year, season of calving, age at first calving, service period and lactation length while all other first lactation traits were affected by herd, year, season of calving and 305-day milk yield. Animal model heritability estimates for these traits were 0.11 ± 0.029, 0.11 ± 0.028, 0.09 ± 0.027, 0.02 ± 0.019, 0.05 ± 0.019, 0.12 ± 0.027 and 0.04 ± 0.020, respectively. Rate of decline in first lactation milk yield was 7 l per year over the last 35 years with genetic trend close to zero.
