Description:
Heineken has been slammed for chopping down a 300-acre orchard - the size of 140 football pitches.<br/><br/>The UK's largest cider maker has felled the huge site - also home to a significant number migratory birds.<br/><br/>Heineken has now 'levelled' Penrhos Orchard, on the Offa's Dyke path in Monmouthshire, Wales.<br/><br/>According to the BBC, Heineken uprooted thousands of trees planted in 1997 as it wants to sell the land as they had a surplus of apples - but a demand decline for cider.<br/><br/>Environmentalists have shown concerns about the impact this felling will have on migratory bird populations - particularly wintering thrush species such as fieldfare and redwing, who eat autumn berries then move on to apple crops and have been seen in significant numbers amongst the area.<br/><br/>Though Heineken has insisted it acted in accordance with the Wildlife Act.
