Abstract

An understanding of the livestock situation in Great Britain today can be gained only by some reference to the livestock situation prior to the war and a rather detailed reference to the general farming and cropping system followed in Great Britain before the war and the one being followed now. Great Britain is, in the main, a country of small diversified farms, with livestock as the main interest. Relatively few farms are livestock farms only, and hardly any at all specialize in only one kind of livestock. The average breeding establishment, that is well known in the United States as a producer of outstanding cattle or sheep, is usually a farm that has sheep in addition to the cattle that are so well known to us, or cattle are found on the sheep farms. Most of the rough feed for the livestock is produced on the farm, and before the war much of the grain was also produced there.
