Re: Smiddiehill Sale
Why would anyone want to risk bringing anything into NI?

Equally, would you buy anything high profile into southern England until a blue tongue vaccine is available?

Re: Smiddiehill Sale
With the way the vector free period works every animal has to pass a blood test showing they are antibody free before they can leave the surveillance zone and all the Smiddiehill animals have passed that. Any animals going to Ireland will be moved to Scotland straight after the sale. I have already checked on this

It will be interesting to see what the controversial Paradise calves make.
We were told by Miklink when the original story broke that if Milklink members wanted to use clones or progeny of clones in their breeding programs then Milklink didn't want their milk because of pressure from their customers.

Re: Smiddiehill Sale
Re bluetounge.
The animals slaughtered on monday had all been tested and quarantined in the Netherlands before coming here. There is a feeling locallly that either someone in DARD has made a big mistake or else the government are out to make an example of the farmer involved so as to make others think again before importing anything.

Re: Smiddiehill Sale
Charryman Yes that does unfort include England, the Smiddiehill cattle might will all have passed a negative BT test but so did the heifers that were brought in from Holland and then when tested here were found to have the disease
