So great to see what can be done with native breed wool and a bit of imagination.

Above being a part of the food chain, this is another role that #NativeBreeds can play their part in.

Adapted to thrive & flourish on marginal land in the UK’s landscapes & climate, they bring huge benefits to environmental land management & promoting biodiversity.

Heading south after an excellent day with #RBSTScotland at @SSGFestival The members helping on the stand did us proud and great to find so much enthusiasm for making money by keeping native breeds

[RBST @RBSTrarebreeds]

Our network of accredited farm parks do fantastic work conserving and promoting native livestock breeds #GoNative

[Young RBST @YoungRbst]

This is very concerning if the Prime Minister is missing the point that lack of abattoirs and workers may lead to a shortage in British meat...
