IMG_4507_gripped.jpg Boggy Moorland above Wet Sleddale that has had drainage ditches dug into the peat, known as gripping, to try and make the ground more suitable for sheep grazing. This is disastrous environmentally, causing a triple whammy of destruction. for a marginal gain in sheep farming, it degrades the moorland bog as a habitat for specialist plants and animals, it reduces the peat bogs ability to lock away and store carbon, and it greatly increases the flood risk downstream, as rain water drains straight off the land, rather than being taken up and released slowly by the peat and sphagnum moss.

IMG_0899_cow.jpg Under Helm Farm in Grasmere is being farmed in a way that reduces their carbon footpint. They use Belgian blue cattle that produce both beef as well as milk. The cattle are fed on Rye grass which significantly reduces their methane output. Also the Belgian blues can be calved up to 10 times, where as most pure milking cattle only calf 3 times before they are destroyed. The male calves of milkers are normally destroyed, where as the male calves of the Belgian Blues can be reared for beef. The farmers Alan and Jocelyn Riley have also noted that climate change has in the last 30 years, extended the growing season of the grass by up to 6 weeks, meaning the cattle can stay outside much longer than in the past.
