Hm, I'm not sure that's only good news. I remember reading somewhere that dairy farms had generally just become much larger. I think it may have been in an article about those proposed 'super-dairies' that were all over the headlines a few years ago. Somehow, I doubt that the volumes of cow's milk produced, and the number of cows abused for it, have decreased.
From that Dairy is scary groiniad article
That makes me very happy. I live in a 99% dairy farming part of the country, and it's disgusting, on top of the cruelty, the state of the rivers and roads, the amount of effluent that runs off into the sea. Wouldn't be surprised if the south coast of devon/dorset is a dead zone soon.
