[QUOTE="Bury the Trash, post: 7435561, member: 12099"] Yes. Well it would be better than the over grazing of 40 yrs ago or so ( mainly by too many and too long grazing by sheep tho tbf ) and the undefgrazing in some areas today . But in real life and something fundimentathat you dont seem to accept , is that especially within the National parks or on Commons ( which a lot if our moors or proper uplands are within ) for certain reasons ( like very old laws ) it wont happen so its a waste of time discussing it. On ground in less favoured area ground not under those restrictions ( but I guess they might still be within Natural Englands ' control' )well that will depend on the farmer I guess, but still winter feeding regimes will be needed on commercial farms and with that winter work to do those farmers will want a break from the stock at least some of the time through the summer, i doubt they would want to be tied to moving electric fences every day. Having said that I'm a lowland farmer so I dont know much about tbf but that's not to say that I'm not interested. [/QUOTE]
