Dartmoor Beef
Dartmoor in Devon is a truly beautiful landscape, stretching from the wild open moorland down the hills to enclosed farmland and river valleys. Without farming, the landscape and its wildlife would not survive as it does today.
Beef has traditionally been extensively reared on Dartmoor using the suckler system, where the beef cows calve once a year and calves remain with their mothers for at least six months.In order to conserve the special character of Dartmoor it is essential to retain traditional hill farming practices, including the rearing of livestock in the hills. The future of Dartmoor will therefore always be heavily dependent upon a viable and buoyant hill farming economy.
