Have just heard of one farming practice which may affect the health of the food
chain. It seems to be a new 'common practice' for busy farmers to spray their
herbicide just before harvesting the succulent grass for fermentation into
silage
for winter feed. They have been reassured (by the chemical company) that it
is safe practice!!!!!!   Apparently common practice here now.
No wonder we have so many dairy  """""""allergies"""""""
Any farmers or environment watchers out there who could comment further?

Mary Grant.
