Remind me again why I thought that taking on a FTB was a good thing ? 😩 it’s fine though Labour has the working man’s back 🤥🤥🤥 #disaster

Definitely the year to be looking at blight trials, short trip from Cornwall to Derby but well worth it 🥔 @EurofinsAgro

I choose my words carefully; that's the tenanted sector fucked. A green accounting exercise with a total lack of joined up thinking. More pressure on fewer & fewer farmed acres, with the balance of food imported regardless of that impact. A quick city £ making scheme.

Keep an eye out for aphids in stubbles and cover crops. Early burn off helps decrease numbers by depriving them of a food source, so they starve or migrate away before the new crop emerges.

A little graph taken from the front page of the FT that speaks volumes about supply chain unfairness in the food chain

[James Walkers @JamesWalkers1]

Isn't it interesting that the cost of food is blamed for the rate of inflation today - welcome to the REAL cost of your food, if people don't wake up soon to land being removed from production for lots of reasons they will also be waking up hungry as well as feeling the pinch !

Yesterday After visiting multiple farms carrying out machine audits of machine capabilities for variable rate application, we visited a farm near kirkham (Lancs) Here we fitted an @omniauk connect kit to a Lemkin solitaire drill.

My piece for @FarmersWeekly remarking on the surreality of where 🇬🇧 food & farming is in 2023.

But perhaps it needs to be read in conjunction with @Merry_Meredith’s editorial (below) following recent SFI announcements…

[Joe Stanley @JoeWStanley]

“Those who worry that [ELM] will cause some farmers to go out of business are missing the point. Rightly or wrongly, keeping farmers in business is not one of its objectives. That’s a decision the Conservative Party must take responsibility for.”

A morning of taking growers around our autumn drill trials. Lots of good discussion about the drills so far…. #notjustplottrials @Finny_64

[Rob Halliday @cvfarming]

That's all of ag, livestock is about half of the ag footprint with a lot of work being done to reduce that further in the UK. "Its not the cow it's the how."
