Now Brigitte sent me a photo of Schäfle and allows me to publish this because I had no picture of a sheep available . Thank you, Brian, you are a treasure! we come to what I really wanted to write.
As a child I lived very near the small town and I had the furthest to school. That is why I envy no one. Then spring came and I was envied by all. Because I had to go just across the road and stayed there in the spring months are a flock of sheep and lambs were born. What shocked me the first time, because I did not know what was going on. When I was inaugurated, I was thrilled. The shepherd was probably an itinerant shepherds. Shepherd hats are those who take their animals on the move, but in the winter to keep the animals in the stable.
These images are a thing of the past. The house where I lived, is already decades no longer the "last" house on the outskirts. Everything is blocked. Shepherd and sheep, of course, also long gone.
Today, I am always pleased when I encounter a herd of sheep, which is a rarity now. The shepherds are often up to 100 km on the road on its journey between summer grazing and winter quarters and keep lawns mowed, stubble fields and fallow land from where this is permitted by the farmers.
In the summer of leased land will be investigated. There are many conservation areas, and the sheep run landscape. Now the shepherds has been a major stumbling block in their way.
you have great difficulty to lease land for shooting the state-funded biogas plants like mushrooms. But here in the district, it currently has 45 pieces. Rising. The rents for the pasture, the shepherd hardly afford, because the biogas operators offer good money and shepherds as well as some farmers simply can not keep up any more, and the pasture and arable land to the native places are lost. As a further decline is necessary to state that the slurry from the biogas plants unpalatable grass for the sheep makes. They become ill.
Well, some will think, so does nothing, then the sheep are just some people come away and feel healthy in biogas plants. As simple as I would never see, because the sheep are working in so Summer as a very important custodians of the countryside on valuable and species-rich areas. A single sheep transported 10000-15000 seeds and many small animals in its fur, thus ensuring genetic exchange verinselten areas.
also interesting that two thirds of the shepherd hats in Bavaria with the 55 Bavarian landscape maintenance organizations work together and achieve such a large part of their income. And without the pastoral landscapes could be here in Ries, do not get in the Lech Valley or the Valley of the Altmühl. Maybe we could finally create conditions so that sheep can survive their hats.
we want something Read more about the EU bureaucracy? As might be expected, it makes the shepherds life even more difficult. The health policy impedes the direct marketing of animals. Slaughter premises must be converted with high costs to continue to be allowed to sell the lamb meat to the customer. Because of these requirements, for example, came to market Lechtal lamb to a halt.
hard to understand because the EU is to promote scholarship programs specifically about the direct marketing of meat products in rural areas. Aha, this support will probably not apply if there are restrictions on use. Just as it is the case for protected areas. Or what?
I wonder whether the shepherd on the Red List must fix. The same problem I had observed in Sicily.
This article has now become a little detail, but very briefly deal with, that's probably not there.
