Keeping farm animals and horses in extreme weather
Responsible steps must be taken (such as preparing food and water) to plan for animals’ welfare in extreme weather. This should be part of the business planning when livestocks and animals are expected to be at risk during extreme weather and take necessary action (such as providing more water) if needed. You should make sure livestock are protected from extreme weather and that food and water are available – you may need to cooperate with neighbours if supplies run short or access is difficult.
