Yorkshire buffalo farmer
seeks commercial licence

BRITISH buffalo farmer Paul Langhorne hopes to get a licence to commercialise his venture shortly.

Langhorne, from Northallerton, North Yorkshire, launched himself into buffalo farming after his son, who suffers from cystic fibrosis, developed a violent allergy to cows milk.

His herd currently supplies his family and neighbours.

Only three or four farms in Britain have buffalo.
