Calling all farmers - if you can spare 30 mins one day between 6th-22nd February, why not take part in the Big Farmland Bird Count? It's a great way to highlight the nature supported on your farm 🚜🦉
🐦 The Big Farmland Bird Count starts tomorrow (6 February). Farmers are being urged to spend just 30 minutes recording bird sightings to help track the health of UK farmland birds

Great to attend the @natsheep Sheep Farmers’ Conference in Harrogate today. Lots of thought-provoking discussions and a chance to network with leaders in our fantastic UK sheep industry 🐏
Today we sponsored the Swaledale draft ewe sale at J36 @NWAuctions and went along to chat to farmers from the @lakedistrictnpa and beyond. Pictured is the Champion pen of ewes from E&A Wear, Howe Green
