Financial performance of dairy farms in 2018 seem to be worse than previous years. Participating farmers were loosing in average $588/cow/year. Those that lowered cost of production, even thought had less income, appear to be more profitable #dairyfarming

Robert Thompson was just 21 when he took his own life last year after living with depression and anxiety.

In a tribute, around 150 tractors made an emotional journey through County Durham in memory of the dedicated young farmer, aiming to raise awareness about mental health.
