Subsidies for sheep?


Recommended Posts

Does anyone know if there are EU subsidies for keeping sheep or goats on your land?

I know that the French are traditionally self-sufficient, but I've noticed that an awful lot of my countryside neighbours have recently taken to keeping a couple of sheep (and/or goats) alongside their usual flocks of laying hens.

Do they know something that I don't? (no rude answers to that question please [:D])

  A neighbor of mine has two of the poor things rams with collars on tied to trees in his front garden..There is hardly enough grass for them to eat and when they have wound themselves round the tree to the point that they cant move  they just bleat on for ages waiting for him to come out  un winds them ...The sheep are not the only things "wound up " by this !
