Big thanks to @emmagillbard for coming up to Worcestershire and reporting on a bit of veg farming! https://t.co/VjtLe3hYAA

@ukeastcoast Patch of oats we span on and rolled in September as a cover crop, can’t fault it…grazed this with sheep over the winter and if I didn’t need the ground for veg I’d keep them to combine! No sprays, no fert so far and look better than other crops we’ve grown “conventionally”

Robotic planting of Tenderstem in full swing ready for your plates in June 🥦🥦 @Tenderstem @standeneng

I tried to distill why farmers are so angry into a single tweet. Summery as follows - We’ve had enough of working for nothing, to produce something everyone needs, while being told we’re doing a shit job of it, by people who’ve never done it.
I think that covers it?

Nice Sunday morning crop walk over some wheat to see the house behind this land have decided to cut their hedge and drive all over the crop #farming

@Knaggsy16 @TuckwellGroup @standeneng @JohnDeere @FerrariSrl That looks more than ideal compared to what we’ve got in the West Midlands mate!

The Life Of A Racehorse 📊

Stradivarius raced for almost 2 hours total across his
35 races, just 0.0024% of his life to date! 🏇

@AnimalRising @BrookFarmAS I suggest you ask for some books on horse welfare to be donated to Brook Farm, that’s fucking appalling.

@CorbettfarmsL @Wyefarm Specifically north to the airfield please and thanks 🙏

@Pxfarms @EnvAgency @NaturalEngland Picture taken very recently I believe…looks fine to me. Think it’s time the EA gave their heads a wobble and rather than making an example out of a farmer take some action against multi million pound water companies….picture copied from another page on social media, not my own.

Protesters forcing the mental well-being of the racehorse to be affected. Brainless, uneducated people who respect nobody but themselves, whilst having the opposite affect of what they’re protesting #GrandNational

[Alex Baylis @alexbaylis_]

Big shift by the planting team to work through the night to get some @Tenderstem in the ground…hoping for some warmer and drier days to catch up with planting and get some early June production 🥦🥦🥦

[Racing TV @RacingTV]

Every racing fan will love this ❤️

Few days out in Kenya🇰🇪 setting up a farm 🚜 who knew giraffes liked broccoli 🥦 🦒

@JackDorey_ Top job 👍🏼

[Joe Stanley @JoeWStanley]

Farmers are losing 29p per dozen eggs because supermarkets aren’t paying them a fair price - that’s why there’s an egg shortage.

The 20th and final block of @Tenderstem making a miserable morning in Worcestershire look a bit better🥦🥦🥦 #BackBritishFarming

[Alex Baylis @alexbaylis_]

Imagine if a group of meat eaters did this to a vegan cafe…if you think a plant based diet will save the environment you need your head checking 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

@Farmerharps On some rented ground from a local farm, I think it’s know as a shit field so we must’ve done something right

[Alex Baylis @alexbaylis_]

Today marks the end of a testing planting season, the last of 9 million plants going in and the mid season plantings are starting to produce perfect tenderstem.
