New Zealand Lamb Example

Are there any sources for any of this section? I've never seen French lamb in UK supermarkets, whereas New Zealand lamb is widespread when English or Welsh lamb is out of season, and France produces far less lamb than the UK or New Zealand do according to the lamb Wikipedia page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.176.105.152 (talk) 09:32, 22 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

According to statistics from the UK's Agriculture and Horticulture Development board (http://beefandlamb.ahdb.org.uk/markets/industry-reports/uk-statistics/), the UK currently imports 5 times as much lamb from outside the EU as it does from inside the EU, with the largest EU supplier of lamb (Ireland) being around 1/7th the size of New Zealand, a situation that has been the case for several years. In light of this, I think it's unlikely that New Zealand lamb imports being replaced with French lamb imports is an example of trade diversion.
