Lack of rain set to impact winter animal feed levels
The President of the Manx National Farmers Union says the current dry weather could 'change the face of Manx agriculture'.
A lack of growth in grass and crops has raised fears of a shortage of food for livestock in the months to come, potentially leaving farmers with the additional cost of importing feed.
But, with the industry in the UK facing a similar situation, there's uncertainty over how much will be available to buy.
Brian Brumby says the situation could see some farmers weighing up their options:
Neonatal Care Leave 'would have been invaluable to us as a family'
Chair of Castletown Commissioners says town needs to 'maximise' use of Market Square
Arbory and Rushen Commissioners planning new family focussed leisure facility
Ministers pressed on Covid review progress, strategic reserve rules, and offshore wind returns in House of Keys
