Our recent farmers meeting was very well attended, even though it was lambing and calving season. Hopefully, everyone is now up to speed on the responsible use of medicines and the farming sector will continue to reduce the use of antibiotics significantly. Many thanks to all of you who attended the meeting, and to Hannah the Norbrook vet who gave the talk and Sam the Norbrook rep. Big thank you to Jane for the food which was much appreciated as usual!
