While reading of the demise of dairy farming at the Upper Stoneham Farm and in Sussex generally (Argus, August 20), I noticed on the same page how West Sussex County Council has produced a leaflet extolling the delights of our local countryside.
Those delights rely chiefly on traditional farming and this county will be poorer for their loss.
The situation is not the fault of the farmer and buying local produce should be encouraged. Chichester and Arundel have excellent farmers' markets.
Do readers know of any others?
