Few farming industries have seen more changes than the poultry sector over the years, and being the third generation to take on the profession, it is one which Forfar-based supplier, Robert Thompson, knows more than most about. Like so many family farms, the industry has seen the loss of many poultry units, with both egg laying and broiler production now in the hands of a select view. Such have been the changes within the sector, that the UK is now only 65% self sufficient in chicken and despite the mass influx of laying units, some eggs do still have to be imported.
