@pull_the_udder1 standen engineering took over all dowdswell designs and rights to parts.

@Veganella_ @hoothathuh Plough up grass for cereals, sow milling wheat for flour. But can't guarantee will make the grade at harvest, weather dictates that. If fails milling grade goes for animal feed. Cereal often to animal feed as last resort. Need a backup market if no animals. Or £ up to cover cost.

@TheJacquelineJ @ImKhan70 Hmm but price is going up as fear of not enough in the market. Sales per person may be down, but overall demand still there

@AngelaThornto19 @domdyer70 @ProtectTheWild_ @BadgerCrowd @Keir_Starmer @Kier_Starmer As there is no tb vaccine available for cattle the cost is irrelevant. It is government who decide if farmers can vaccinate, and they have not let it be available.

@AnnMile71721158 @RoyHowellJones1 @MilesKing10 @RichardBowler1 and maybe you should be asking how a chicken can be produced for £6. Lamb may appear expensive but it is giving a sensible return at that price to all in the production chain . If we want sustainable food production in this country the price has to rise on most other foods.

@clogowena65 @Nigelrefowens farmers have not had that as an option, it is government that have not allowed it.

@NorthleazeFarm @HefinR There a bundle of blue nitram bags in the roof, I can remember having to load the Vicon wagtail with them.
The relief when the dumpy bag came out!

While cleaning out our old threshing barn I decided it was time to tackle the previous tenants, pre 1980s , wooden cupboard.
There must be a 100 old hessian sacks some stitched and mended others as good as new.

@GuillaumeMillet @Veganella_ @rightviewonlife @herdirtytoes @Mondiablue @BeyondMeat Why do you say oat harvest was down, was it quantity of acres grown or yield.
