@BorisJohnson, didn't you get the memo? 🤷 The demand for coal is declining 📉 – even the British steel industry doesn't want it! ❌ #CumbrianCoalMine @CPRE

I am frankly appalled that @NFUStweets are calling for those areas identified as Ecological Focus Areas to be brought into production as a response to a humanitarian crisis. And this is why 🧵/1

Lovely day for some coppice work around an old pond that will be restored this summer

Canberra has demanded that London make several changes to its domestic legislation on SPS and animal welfare before the UK-Aus deal can move to ratification...this should be red line for UK which has committed to retain its food and farming standards

@croxtonpark it's a hot day again so we have topped up the pigs wallow so the pigs can keep themselves cool. 🥰

A great thread to read and like James I feel so deflated on what the future holds for U.K. farmers our countryside and nature. We had a choice to build a better future & repair the damage done in the past. Valuing the produce and the landscape it comes from.

Will you be voting for high standards trade in the Trade Bill tomorrow @ab4scambs ?

[Olivia Midgley @FGoliviamidgley]

MPs have said no to enshrining environment, animal welfare and food standards into law in the #AgricultureBill, with some saying enough progress has been made to ensure British farmers are not undermined in future trade deals. Last night's vote 👇

[The Wildlife Trusts @WildlifeTrusts]

Yesterday the #AgricultureBill returned to the House of Commons. Last night’s vote saw the MPs vote against an amendment previously passed in the Lords to #SaveOurStandards, despite a rebellion of 14 Conservative MPs. What does this mean? 👇(1/5)

Patrick Holden: “You can't have local and welfare friendly meat of any description unless you have local abattoirs.” Excellent article about importance of small abattoirs and featuring butcher William Lloyd Williams in Machynlleth, Wales @dwnews https://t.co/ouu5NEBgC3

Butterflies loafing on lucerne next to an excellent margin, full of wild grasses, on a wildlife-friendly organic farm @croxtonpark @HassounehOmer @NFFNUK

[Unimportant @RSetchfield]

Invertebrates thrive in species-rich margins that wildlife-friendly farms leave uncut. Not cutting these valuable habitats protects adults, eggs and offspring, allowing populations to survive from year to year @croxtonpark @HassounehOmer @NFFNUK

[Croxton Park @croxtonpark]

Proud to provide a home to these beauties! #naturefriendlyfarming

A great range of butterfly species can be found this weekend (such as these) feeding on brambles in sprawling hedgerows on nature friendly farms

[Croxton Park @croxtonpark]

Wonderful to see so many butterflies on our #fieldmargins #organic farming. Beautiful vid @RSetchfield

[Unimportant @RSetchfield]

A huge range of butterflies (like these) can find breeding sites and plentiful feeding (especially on black knapweed) in uncut ditch verges on nature friendly farms
