- Summary
- COI synopsis: At the Grassland Research Institute, better breeding techniques in livestock have resulted in some ewes giving more lambs. But this means more mouths to feed and the ewes just aren’t equipped for this, they have not got enough milk. But, as ever, good old science has the answer! An automatic computerised mummy! Milk substitute, rows of pipes and artificial teats, all carefully controlled to give just the right amount at the right time.
