I agree there is a great opportunity here. I recently saw some photos of what could have been an organic horticultural grower that was using wool in its polytunnels as the mulch and insulator, which it had bought from a neighbouring farmer, with nice symbiosis. That is just one example, and there are plenty of others throughout the country. I often get correspondence asking why we do not do this.

The opportunity is there and the sooner we get the wool council up and running, the better the outlook for our sheep farmers and that wonderful wool, which is always of high quality.
