This refers to illegally imported 'bush meat'. A warning to 'anyone who eats meat' is ridiculous.

Anyway, just to be on the safe side, I'm chucking the pouched rat curry I'd made for tonight in the bin

Yes but not when it jumps species allegedly???

Cows and calves strong money in Hfd today

Was speaking to a friend/neighbour today. He'd phoned ABP to book in 12 bulls. Agent told him 14 day waiting list so just booked them in for then. ABP agent phones next day saying they could take them tomorrow!

He told them to p!55 off. They'd get them in 2 weeks.

Is it because they aint making any money out them ? Or is their somethimg else ? Because i wouldnt want to base my future om sheep alone they could crash any day and 100% sheep not great for the land either .

Do these big finishers know something the rest of us don't!?

The way some of them are buying barley and cattle you would think they've been promised a big rise shortly.
