@convert what you describe is more like the process of cheese making than butter. There is nothing added to curdle the milk and certainly no heating to make butter. In fact you could make butter yourself very easily. Just leave full fat milk in a shallow dish in the fridge. Use a flat sppon to lift off the cream and put it in a jam jar. When you have an inch of cream in the jar stick the lid on and start shaling it. It will take a while but eventually the cream will turn to butter. You can use 2 lumps of wood to pat the butter to get any excess water out and add salt to taste. But that is essentially it.
I just hope that anyone who worries about what chemicals are in the food they eat are also thinking about the chemicals used to produce their food. I can gaurantee that a lamb produced here on organic grassland will have a far far lower chemical & carbon footprint than any "non organic and non locally" produced vegetable, fruit or cereal based product sold in a supermarket.

From the UK dairy council.....
To make butter, milk is first heated to 50°C and then piped into a centrifuge -

Even as a vegan, I applaud farmer like you that raise your livestock with high welfare standards and in a way that is healthy to consume. Naturally, I'd rather you didn't and we didn't exploit other species but that's another story.
Where to me your narrative falls down (I live next door to a beef farmer and he says similar about his grass fed cattle) is that the number of people that only eat other foodstuffs aside from your lamb or his beef of the same integrity must be vanishingly small. They eat your lamb on a Sunday and are at Maccy D's on a Monday - or eating a pie of unknown source, or a sausage at the workplace etc. And even when they eat your lamb....is everything else on their plate similarly sourced? Iain (next door neighbour) likes to post memes taking the piss out of ignorant vegans and the air miles on their plate in comparison to his beef. Then the next minute he's posting images of a roast dinner of his beef with some highly contentiously sourced veggie accompaniments.
Will short trousers do? I have red short trousers only, my long ones are all blue
All your trousers are short! 🤣
