To Fetch a Pail

Continuing past Holt Bottom, and preparing to leave the Sussex Border Path, the Gorse Fox looked across at the distant Jack and Jill Windmills.

The fields he was crossing were full of radishes. Big radishes, the size of a child's fist. These seemed to be being used for winter grazing of the cattle who foraged (do cattle forage?) across the fields.

Given the effect that radishes are reputed to have of the human digestive tract, and assuming this is similar for ruminants, Gorse Fox would point out that this may be a major cause of carbon emissions.
