Principal of Zela Elementary School James Marsh was removing a bar lock, designed to deter bears from breaking in to eat food scraps. But the lock clearly did not work for one bear who had been going in and out of the bin all weekend

@dgwhoyles Looking Good!!

Is there a more basic, in season, easy to grow in the UK, vegetable than the humble cabbage?

Why do you need to be importing them @asda?

What's happening @Mark_Spencer?

A voyage to the bottom as the rest of world feeds the UK whilst our farmers become park keepers?

Catching up on Top14 and, sorry, but the audacity of this alone deserves to get Zach Mercer a call-up to the England squad for the World Cup

What have you @RedTractorFood got to say about this utter load of confusing bollocks eh???? It's not a joke, the joke is that red tractor is totally pointless. @Minette_Batters @DavidatWestons @NFUFoodBusiness @coopuk You need to get this sorted. @AnnaLongthorp #biteintobosch 🤬

Once we stop making food, humans run out of food in 90 days. #foodsafety #foodsecurity #farming

[John Harper @Farmerharps]

The government seems intent on making it harder and more expensive every day to employ seasonal labour. An immigration policy which is unfit for the future of British agriculture.

Well done to @NFUtweets Vice President @ProagriLtd and @NFUWestMids Derek Jarman explaining the impact that shortage of labour in the agriculture and horticulture sectors is having at the @CommonsEFRA https://t.co/uKOdv8oxIG

This video has appeared on my timeline so many times today & each time I watch it I get angrier, sadder and more mystified as to how he can possible have such a lack of understanding, lack of willingness to address the issue or a lack of comprehension about how supply chains work

Finished the wheat bringing it in at 13.8% Now back to Irrigation! Didn't expect this a week ago.

[John Harper @Farmerharps]

Very well said!

[Derek Wilkinson @wdwilkinson]

We need government action now before it is too late. A major scaling back of UK horticulture is in no ones interest @DefraGovUK @ukhomeoffice

[John Harper @Farmerharps]

@Georgethefarmer Looks very shiny!!!

[John Harper @Farmerharps]

@dgwhoyles @wheat_daddy Sid would like to be involved!
