Over the next six months growers will assess whether their trees will reshoot and recover or whether they will have to be pulled out. "They go and work with the farmers to make sure that all the animal welfare matters, if there is need for any disposal of animals, all of those matters are going to be worked through with the relevant property owners," Professor Doroudi said.President Joe Keynes said the immediate concern was to get some hay into those animals that are on the fireground without any fodder.
