I travelled by train from Edinburgh to London today.
I must have passed a thousand fields on the way yet I didn’t see a single farmer.
What are these people doing all day? Probably sat on their butts watching GBNews and moaning about paying tax as the rest of us work.
Disgusting

@FavColour_Green @DogImaginary @Sarahcoxon8 Every day a school day, thank you. Excellent thread explaining hedgerow management. Isn’t it great how engaged people can become when a balanced, well-informed perspective is clearly presented?

@DogImaginary @FavColour_Green @Sarahcoxon8 We’ve just done a 300m stretch alongside a footpath and were bracing ourselves for backlash from members of the public who didn’t understand what we were doing. Quite the reverse, everyone has been very supportive

@DogImaginary @FavColour_Green @Sarahcoxon8 Coppicing hedges appears drastic but is the most effective way to generate fresh regrowth from the base to make for thick, wildlife-friendly hedge within a year. Done rotationally, within ten years an entire farm can have top class wildlife corridors right round it.

@suesustainable @Slug_95 Sadly your ‘wrong assumptions’ only serve to diminish your argument which is principle is sound. The stubble is clearly cereal residue. We’d all love to see green covers year round but the reality is that it’s not always possible. @timstephensuk
