Australian lamb slaughter figures hit four-year peak.
MLA report a huge supply of lambs hitting the market and this trend is expected to continue.
@DefraGovUK@AHDB_BeefLamb surely not good news for GB producers.

Fmr Environment Sec George Eustice has spoken about the post-Brexit UK/Australia trade deal in the Commons. He says now no longer a minister: "I no longer have to put such a positive gloss on what was agreed...the Australia deal is not actually a very good trade deal for the UK."
ESG fact checkers: Ever wonder why China is cranking out hundreds of coal-fired power plants? Hint: It’s not to make t-shirts. Ever wonder what all the minerals are for? Renewable energy, naturally. /15
Last bale of 2022 fodder harvest, just over 1000 bales of hay and haylage made with no fert and v little rain. Last 35 acres had only 26mm of rain since kept up 10th June have done 6 bales to acre, had to leave some standing for lambs to wean onto. #drought22#viewfromthehills
Rather than pushing for decarbonisation, my council @WestNorfolkBC planted 6000 trees - in May🤦
This week I checked 150 of them - 90% were dead. Of those, 15% weren't even properly planted in the ground.
What a shocking waste of effort and money!
