@cowmanpete This is soo wrong. I am so fed up of regen millionaires telling the rest of us how and what to do. It’s easy when you have millions behind you!
FiPL is a huge success. Local multi-skilled teams of “real” people who know & love their local area, assessing what will work & able to provide quick and helpful feedback. Grass-roots - it’s why it works. A model to keep and expand @NatlLandscapes @Ruralpay@DefraGovUK
National Landscapes are home to 10% of the UK’s farmland. In the past two years alone, #NationalLandscapes teams have supported Defra to get £15.8m to farmers to deliver nature-friendly farming, through the #FarminginProtectedLandscapes scheme.
@Farmer_Tom_UK Nothing a bit of baker twine won’t fix. My husband has a couple of new coats but still wears one with a bit of baker twine around it and half the lining coming out!
@holnicoteNH Well said!! The drive to plant trees just because of the marketing spin is driving me crazy! And by some large organisations who should know better!
@NFUtweets has anyone been in touch to see what you think of @natwest encouraging it’s customer to reduce the amount of meat that they are eating? Any idea how many farming customers @NatWestBusiness has?

Dormice have been busy munching these hazelnuts. Beautiful example of what hedgerows can look like - full of fruit for #wildlife. Hats off to @ManorMill Branscombe! @EastDevonAONB @PTES
100% British potatoes @LidlGB on front of pack, back of pack, tho apparently we need to be detectives to decipher that some are not British. this may not matter to some people but to British farmers supplying YOU it is a kick in the teeth. 1/2
@Dr_Ellie@catpriya5 Surely those making the programme had a responsibility to ensure she was aware of that or to suggest that she sought independent advice. Can’t imagine it’s anything she might have experienced before.
Moths must be one of nature's most underappreciated creatures! Switch off your lights, put away the pesticide spray, and make your garden a haven for them! #mothsmatter@savebutterflies@Buzz_dont_tweet
