Congratulations to Chris for being Grassland Farmer of the Year @FW_Awards. The change in the farming system from a traditional mixed farming unit to purely forage has been great to see. Even if it does mean less arable crops to sow! Thanks to the Berrys for using our services

Good luck to all finalists at this evenings @FW_Awards, especially those from the south west. You are all an inspiration!

It has been a good growing season for maize in this area. Even the short cut strip till method crops look good😉

[James Lee @LeeFarming]

Drilled with Polysulphate and DAP. Cover of triticale and beans have done a good job. These were grazed off back in March

Well away now and soon be helping to produce #milk. @maizegrowers

[James Lee @LeeFarming]

@JamesWhatty @Nick_Wilson3 Silaging on a farm this week made me think of a similar scenario, in the livestock farming world. Contractors-us. Feed truck arrived. Machinery technician to service a telehandler. AI technician as well. Then the milk tanker arrived. Four businesses helping to produce food

Any companies offering crop spraying with a drone? #osr pod sealant

@loosecollie Lots of comments on X and elsewhere that the government dont know what they are talking about, know nothing about farming etc. Unfortunately I think their plans are pre conceived and they know exactly what they are trying to achieve

@YvesPierrre What fertiliser do you give the crop?
