Farm a bit for myself, walk a bit for Edaphos LTD. Opinions my own.

@theladyfarmer Imagine if they told GPs to start selling coffee and news papers to make the job of treating patients stack up. It’s unreal.

@ClarksonsFarm1 2013 diesel mondeo estate. Great spec. Cheap tax and insurance. Never went wrong. Ever. Did exactly what it said on the tine. Unlike the Passat I changed it for that the DSG box went ban on. Big disappointment.

Why have Westminster parties started behaving like Premier League clubs? Change the manager and everything will be ok. What are Labour going to do when in two years Burnham is in exactly the same position? Changing the man doesn’t change the fundamentals.

@st3venwilliams @PhilLatham @NoFarmsNoFoods Mad that solar energy turned into consumable calories is worth less than solar energy turned into electrons flowing down a wire.

@TrumpGirlLove So you think it’s good that your government is prepared to use the military against civilians. Isn’t this exactly the argument you use for the right to bear arms? To protect yourself from tyrannical government. Civilian unrest should be dealt with by the police.

@JoeWStanley It was a good article Joe

@BellaWallerstei Until things go to shit and your private insurance decides not to cover you then you’re back to the NHS.

@ArableSam Everyone gets their knickers in a twist about variable costs. Whilst it’s crucial to spend prudently on inputs, the truth is, it’s fixed costs that are killing the job. That’s where the net margin disappears

@davidpurdysoils That is a remarkable turn around. Something we should be shouting from the roof tops

[Robert Beaumont 🇬🇧 @BeaumontRobert]

We’re one wrong missile, one natural disaster, one crazy global leader away from not having enough calories to feed the people of this island. The fact that our political class don’t see food production as strategic is mind blowing.

[James Rebanks @herdyshepherd1]

I’m calling it now… the last goverment was until recently one of the worst of all time for nature, farming and food policies

THIS GOVERNMENT IS WORSE

And I have a little theory about what’s happening…

@richardpayne94 I did laugh at Max’s comments about making it like Mario kart and them throwing banana skins out

@IanDHorsley 5 years!!! Time flies when you’re having fun

[Robert Beaumont 🇬🇧 @BeaumontRobert]

@BoycefieldFarm I bet that was great fun Billy?

@amblingwarrior One doesn’t simply pull black grass, one spends a fortune on a stack and the sprays it off anyway 😂

Having a little stay in hospital. My god the food is dire. How on earth do you make people better serving them absolute rubbish? I wonder what taking 1% out the pharma budget and putting it into decent nutrition would do to recovery rates?

[Robert Beaumont 🇬🇧 @BeaumontRobert]

Turns out this would be about £200mil.

[Robert Beaumont 🇬🇧 @BeaumontRobert]

A political and economic mastermind of our age. With these people in charge of securing a safe and sustainable food supply, what could possibly go wrong?

[The Grain Geek @thegraingeek]

Oh, so it’s that simple.
Although @agricontract looks unsure…
