Quality cattle assured
Isle of Man Creamery has launched a new intiative to show Manx cattle have been 'grass fed' for a minimum 200 days.
The food accreditation has been designed after years of research by the Creamery and the Department of Environment Food and Agriculture.
It's hoped to assure customers of the benefits of buying local produce, and help Manx producers in the export market.
Managing director Findlay MacLeod says a grass fed cow has milk with better nutritional value
He told Manx Radio that compared to the UK and other countries, the Island's cattle are healthy beasts:
