Tracing the Problems Faced by British Rare Breed Producers
Tracing the problems faced by British rare breed producers What’s the real issue behind the Horsemeat scandal? The ‘Horsemeat Scandal’ revealed a fundamental breakdown in the meat supply chain and a complete disconnection between us, the public, and the food that we eat. 100% traceability is a crucial requirement for protecting our edible biodiversity, an issue particularly relevant to the sheep and cattle industries. Traditional rare breed producers up and down the country are fighting an uphill battle to keep these products on our plates. With the current system favouring larger, fast maturing, commercial breeds, it is up to us to offer the much needed support to these farmers. The ‘Horsemeat Scandal’ showed the scale of the task many of our rare breed producers are facing. However the sensational stories which shocked the nation largely excluded the plight of the small scale producer. It is easy to get hung up about the labelling of horse meat as beef but isn’t it equally scandalous that wonderful British breeds - such as Blue Grey cattle, Old Gloucester cattle and Herdwick Sheep, with all their unique qualities - are being lost in a mountain of nameless meat! At a time when meat consumption is at its highest ever levels, we have a responsibility to be responsible consumers. There has to be a very real and drastic change in the way we think about and buy meat. What can you as the consumer do? At a very basic level, we need to show that there is a demand to know what we’re eating. -

Mrs. Angela Reid Pat Quinn and Joe Henson discussing the finer points of……….? EDITORIAL It seems not very long ago when I penned the last editorial, but as they say time marches on and we are already into Autumn, certainly down here in Wales the trees have shed many of their leaves, in fact some began in early September. In this edition I am delighted that Joe Henson has agreed to update his 1998 article on the Bemborough Flock and in particular his work with the establishment to the RBST. It really is fascinating reading and although I have been a member of the Society since 1996 I have learnt a huge amount particularly as one of my rams comes from the RASE flock and Joe‟s article fills in a number of gaps in my knowledge. As you will see in the AGM Report, Pat Quinn has stepped down as President and Robert Boodle has taken over that position with Judy Wilkie becoming Vice President. On a personal basis, I would like to thank Pat Quinn for her willing help in supplying articles for the Newsletter and the appointment of Judy Wilkie is a fitting tribute to someone who has worked tirelessly over many years for the Society – thank you and well done to you both. -

2012 June Newsletter
Cotswold Sheep Society Newsletter Registered Charity No. 1013326 June 2012 Hampton Rise, 1 High Street, Meysey Hampton, Gloucestershire, GL7 5JW Tel.: 01285 851197 [email protected] www.cotswoldsheepsociety.co.uk Council Officers Chairman – Mr. Richard Mumford Vice-Chairman – Mr. Thomas Jackson Secretary - Mrs. Lucinda Foster Treasurer- Mrs. Lynne Parkes Council Members Mrs. M.

Mrs. Angela Reid Spring at Cwmcrwth Farm (Towy Flock) EDITORIAL John Flanders This edition of the Newsletter contains a number of reminders of events that Council have organised and members are encouraged to support them. Council, in preparing a programme for the year, endeavours to provide subjects that meet the interests of all members, but if there is no support the question has to be asked whether there is any point in having these events. On a lighter note, I am delighted that Rob and Fiona Park have written about their flock of Cotswolds; it is always good to have a few more breeders in Wales. They also produce bacon and pork from the Oxford Sandy and Black rare breed pigs and I can vouch how tasty it is (mail order is available I understand). Sadly, despite my request in the last Newsletter, no one else has come forward to join Judy and me in The View From Here; similarly having tried to have a Young Handlers Section no contributions have been forthcoming. This year Davina Stanhope, Richard Mumford and Robin Leach are standing down from Council and I am grateful for the work that they have all put in on behalf of the Society. -

Lancaster, Original draft published in the Formerly of : B.W.A. Journal – Dec. 1977 National Inst. of Poultry Husbandry, and April 1978. Harper Adam Agricultural College, Updated: November, 2016 Newport, Shropshire (Now Harper Adams University) 1 SEX – LINKAGE AND AUTOSEXING IN WATERFOWL It is only fair to state that the need for early sex determination, through sex linked crosses in waterfowl, is much less than in other classes of poultry. This is because it is easier to vent sex the day-olds of these species with very little training. Moreover, crossbreeding is rarely an option for exhibition and ornamental breeders. The exception is in commercial table duckling production where unfortunately since only white breeds are used, sex-linkage cannot be exploited. There may be some, however, who feel unable to attempt vent sexing, particularly with goslings which are more difficult to manipulate and more vulnerable to rough handling. Others may be interested in sex-linked inheritance for its own sake regardless of any practical advantage. THE PRINCIPLES OF SEX – LINKAGE Without going into too much technical detail I would like to explain the principles underlying sex-linkage. For a more detailed account of these principles the reader is referred to the excellent bulletin by Chris Hann (1966). -

Two girls holding Leicester Longwool lambs We love and care for animals. They are useful partners and good companions. 5. Milking Devon cow standing beside woods Farm animals are important in two ways. First, they provide food for people to eat. Cows, for example, produce milk. 6. Hen on nest with eggs Chickens lay eggs. 7. Eggs from chicken, duck, goose, and turkey in an egg carton Ducks, geese, and turkeys lay eggs too. All of these eggs are good to eat. 8. New Hampshire rooster looking for food in the grass Farm animals are also important because of the jobs they can do. Chickens, for example, eat weeds, insects, and other pests. 9. Two Guinea Hogs in a pasture, with small turkeys in the background Pigs are recyclers, eating many different foods – such as acorns, insects, roots, mice, kitchen scraps, fruit, and sour milk. Pigs eat small snakes too. Not so long ago, people would have a pig in the yard to keep snakes away! 10. Pigs in garden space A pig’s nose is called a snout. Pigs use their snouts for digging up roots or “rooting.” These pigs have been put into a garden after harvest to dig up roots, eat insects, and turn the soil for spring planting. -
