  • The South West Dairy Industry – a Vital Cog in the Economy October 2016
    The South West Dairy Industry – A Vital Cog in the Economy October 2016 The Rural Business School, Duchy College for the South West NFU The South West Dairy Industry – a Vital Cog in the Economy The South West Dairy Industry – A Vital Cog in the Economy Foreword Dairy farming is a key cog in the wheel of the rural economy in the South West, but all too often its enormous contribution goes unsung, buried in a blizzard of headlines about low prices and farmers getting out of dairy production. Family farms of all kinds are critical to the social fabric of rural life, so this report was commissioned to provide a snapshot of the sector and show the enormous value in the supply chain, and beyond, that it delivers for the economy. It graphically illustrates just how important dairy farmers are to the South West and if you take into account the value added to dairy products after they leave the region, and the other business interests many farmers have, the industry is worth even more than the £3.3bn identified in the report. This has been achieved despite the challenges which currently face the industry, in particular continued problems with low commodity prices and the fight against bovine TB. The presence of dairy farmers must not be taken for granted and they need to have a profitable future if we want to continue to see them generate millions of pounds for the economy. Aside from the economic aspect, we mustn’t forget how much farmers contribute to the environment and tourism by maintaining the countryside, and how they help sustain local communities.

    MVF SUPPORTS LAWRENCE WESTON COMMMUNITY FARM “Mole Valley Farmers (www.molevalleyfarmers.com) is pleased to support the great work done by the Lawrence Weston Community Farm in inner city Bristol”, says Julie Edwards, Head of Agricultural Affairs and Corporate Communications for the company. “It’s an fantastic experience to be one minute driving through the heart of the city and the next travelling down a lane into an oasis of calm, complete with trees and birdsong, which feels a million miles away the bustle of everyday life.” Mole Valley Farmers have an ongoing relationship with the Farm, supporting them with animal feeds. Their Bridgewater store also recently donated 18 pairs of wellies, in various sizes for the convenience of the farm’s visitors. These will certainly be well worn, as last year the centre received nearly 22,000 people! Some of thesevisitors are referred by agencies while other just choose to come and have a great time.There is certainly something for everyone - June saw Den Building; wildlife in the Severn and bike workshops;a Farm Hands session for 8 – 11 olds; plus Lunch, Tots and Gardening clubs. Amazingly the Lawrence Weston Community Farm is a seven acre council farm built on a defunct rubbish tip, which has been transformed into a well-used and loved resource. Complete with pigs, duck, chickens, sheep and goats, the farmaimsto improve the quality of life for local people and visitors alike. However, this is only possible with the help of a massive team of nearly 4000 volunteers who’s ages range from 5 – 92! ………………………….
