Cumbria foot-and-mouth disease concerns

Available for over a year

Memories of the 2001 outbreak are "very vivid and very raw" in the farming community. The recent reports of FMD in Germany are being treated with "pragmatic but concerned calm", according to Adam Day from the Cumbria Farmer Network. But if the worst comes to the worst, they say it needs to be treated swiftly, because "we cannot go through what we went through" last time. Getty Images - Heiko119
