答案
Technology is amazing and changing fast. Crops can be grown in controlled conditions to produce the huge quantities needed to feed people, and vegetable protein substitutes mean that people do not have to eat meat. Synthetic fibres mean that alternatives to wool and leather are readily available, and are usually cheaper.
However, people still choose to cat crops that are grown in a more traditional manner, and people still choose to eat meat. Eating is still bound up with social convention and tradition. People can and do survive on completely artificial food, but they miss the social aspect of sharing food with family and friends. Eating traditional food, especially on special occasions, is still important to us.
The animals who share our world are important to us. If we had no use for domestic animals they would cease to exist. Animals are bred for meat, as producers of dairy products, or for their fur or skins as well as by-products such as glue. If farmers can’t sell the products, they will not breed the animals.
In England, we have a number of examples where traditional husbandry of animals is important. In the Lake District, flocks of sheep known as Herdwick sheep live in the inhospitable hills. They make the landscape what it is, and people go out and walk, climb or ride to enjoy the stunning countryside. The sheep are ’hefted’, which means that they know which hillside (or fell side as it is called there) they live on. Their wool is very thick and strong, ideal for outdoor coats and carpets. Farmers are trying very hard to get people to buy products made of wool. In the lowland areas sheep produce softer wool suitable for clothing, and again people are encouraged to use it. If we want the countryside to stay as it is, something we can all enjoy, we have to support the farmers and their animals, who keep it that way. Beautiful clothes and excellent locally produced healthy well flavoured food have much more appeal than mass produced goods.
