The Farming Community Network (FCN) is conducting some new research to better understand the impact of bovine tuberculosis (bTB) on UK farmers’ health and wellbeing. As part of this research, the network is running a survey until mid-August, to be shared with livestock/cattle farmers in the UK. The survey can be found online at https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/3HG5YFG

A FCN spokesperson said: “This has been designed with input from colleagues and academics and is to be shared with livestock/cattle farmers in the UK. FCN want as many farmers as possible to fill it in so that we can gain a wealth of data from across the whole of the UK. It should take no more than 10 minutes to complete.

"The results of the survey will help FCN to better understand how farmers and farm families perceive the threat of bTB, helping us to support those at risk or affected by a bTB breakdown."
