So absolutely no evidence whatsoever then. More an Old Wives Tale than a considered, reasoned argument.

You really are the worst king of troll aren't you?

The evidence is that tb lesions have been found in the stomachs of cattle since the switch to dribble bar use on grazing land.

The dribble bar was sold as a way of utilising slurry on grazing.

It may be circumstantial. It may not be.

Or possibly buying cattle in from herds with long standing tb issues.

Yes I bought a herd with Tb history but the man got me my milk contract and I’d asked another guy if there was any chance of a milk contract available as he was a director of the chosen company I wanted to go with and I’d thought a friend and customer to my contracting business but I understand he never even asked the question but after hearing I’d got a milk contract with the company tried his hardest to get it revoked via the board as he’s done with others out of severe and never ending jealousy. Now I see the guy for what he actually is a DISPICKABLE LOW LIFE☹

I wonder who that actually was ___

Do you not understand what the word "evidence" means? There needs to be a full stop after the word "cattle" as the end of the sentence is irrelevant to the start

Might as well say that "stomach lesions have been found cattle this year, while England hosts a soccer tournament"

So proving that football spreads tb in livestock.

I actually think any cattle farmer in the south west is only one test from a catastrophic Tb breakdown and only a total low life would pick on others at such times.
@Sid go and get yourself some beers and have a reality check please

It's somewhat tedious when most of Sids posts start with "I've heard" or "I've been told" and then turn out to be the usual auction ring blether and gossip. He's been called out for this in the past, and his presence has driven plenty of decent people away from the forum. He's always right so there's no point arguing. It's a pitious stuff.

I haven't posted much but I won't bother again, I've got a life and don't have a chip on my shoulder about TB, organic, robots etc.
