Questions for livestock farmers....what is your view on vet practices being bought out by large corporates? Concerns? Or seen as a positive? #journorequest

Responsible use of all medicines is top of our agenda and milk residues training is a vital part of this. We have #milksure ⁦BCVA⁩ training days planned for dairy owners and all staff. We can even run them in Romanian! ⁦

Asthma patience supposedly emit as much GHG as does all meat consumption. I hate to say it, but the craziness in reporting on the issue of GHG is reaching new heights. “Asthma carbon footprint as big as eating meat” | BBC bbc.com/news/health-50…

So BBC, if it cuts out 300kg C02 per year, on an average UK per head carbon output of approx 10 tonnes that’s a 3% reduction in individual carbon footprint? So that’s equivalent to our meat consumption C02 emissions ?
