Sunday morning, making a start with our hedge planting. About 300 metres to do before spring + the fencing to protect it from cattle. Probably need at least 5 years to develop into a useful boundary & 20 years to be a proper hedge. Got to think long term in this job.

Last night I took part in the DEFRA co-design workshop for the Slurry Investment Scheme proposed in “The Pathway to Sustainable Farming”. Great to be involved in emerging policy #thefutureisinourhands #beproactive #helpinfluencechange

Very sad news regarding Newton Rigg, whilst I wasn’t a student there I have in recent years become more involved with the College and assisted the staff and students. The enthusiasm and knowledge of the staff is fantastic. I sincerely hope a solution can be found to keep it open

Very disappointed to see that Carlisle MP @John4Carlisle voted against the amendment put forward by @neil_parish to the Agriculture Bill yesterday. Interesting decision from the Chair of the APPG for Food and Drink #notbackingbritishproduce
