Of course Mr Merc will have a list of reasons why his product is worth more than the competition. And will use them in his advertising.

Yes as I was asked the question why British lamb was better I gave three valid reasons why it was better which everyone chose to ignore

Good advertising/selling isn’t necessarily about why the product is actually better than others it’s finding out what the customer perceives as making a product superior and persuading them your product has those qualities however you have to manipulate descriptions to do that.
Prime example on TV at the moment is an ad for a cruise liner company. Huge ship drinking thousand of litres of fossil fuels an hour carrying thousands of people throwing endless food away daily spewing raw sewage into the sea. A major part of the ad states how can we cruise carbon neutral? Answer in reality it’s completely impossible, they say we’re working hard on that for you. What does that mean? Nothing, they state no results for any progress made, but 75% of viewers come away thinking they are a ‘green’ company and 30% who were only half listening because the kettle was on now think they actually are carbon neutral. That’s advertising

If only there was a board/organisation that could automatically deduct a grotesque and eye watering amount off of each of every finished beast lamb and pig we sold without our consent to promote our products it would be such a wonderful thing to be contributing towards…
best put them upright then or are they NZ imports ?
naa best not have such a thing they would only tell folks to eat less meat [which they are doing BTW]

Your lucky, the bit of grass I do have is been kept for the ewes when they start lambing.

That'll be why they needed the increase.to pay for all those flights to the middle east.
