Cattle
are an important component in the economy
of Tiree and are essential in maintaining
the unique island environment and assoicaited
biodiversity.
The aim of the project is to raise awareness
of a cattle health initiative on the island
which aspires to imporve the quaity of beef
produced on the island, create a Tiree brand
in the future and premium prices for cattle
producers. This will have the added benefit
of increasing the sustainability of the islands
economy and lessen the risk of cattle numbers
dropping below the level required to maintain
the existing environment. |
