Omnia is a fantastic tool for managing, recording and locating countryside stewardship plots on farm. @Omniaprecision #agronomy @TomRouse2 #FarmacySouth #countrysidestewardship

Interesting morning, started with a VESS for Local farmer benchmarking group. Setting group record with 71 worms from a single surface mustard extraction! Then talked water management with @NorfolkWildlife on better ways to manage water flow once drains have deposited into ditch

Sad to think that farmers have to try so painfully hard on social media to promote our industry because the government and the mainstream media give it such a bad name 99% of the time. #MeatAThreatToOurPlanet

[Tom Bradshaw @ProagriLtd]

So my take home message from the first 15 mins of #MeatAThreatToOurPlanet is why is the UK industry being massively tainted with US production? We don’t eat their meat!

A little reminder - well used manure is an incredible fertiliser for a sustainable integrated system!

[Geoffrey Bastard @Geoffrey_RB]

Guarantee less than 1 minute of footage from British 🇬🇧 farms will be shown on this BBC documentary... why? Because British farming IS sustainable and environmental #MeatAThreatToOurPlanet

[National Farmers' Union @NFUtweets]

In a boost for British livestock farmers @waitrose has today announced it is to #BackBritishFarming & commit to 100% British lamb across its own label fresh and frozen products. Our livestock board chairman @RGFWesterdale gives his reaction https://t.co/pCtGzMCd1g
