    The clipping charge is of little concern compared to the blagardism that was conducted this winter.

    if it keeps growing at current rate, then it might be in 2-3 years. Article says market grew 50% last year. At least someone is shaking up the small few players that put the boot in to us all winter.

    Not that I am aware of....thr the factories will exhaust the hoggets first
    .....so spring lamb is not as we know it

    Farm organisations nothing again...Easter spring lamb should be labeled like the way cattle are for quality assurance
