@GeorgeMonbiot @AllanRSavory @waddledogie @oliveoilguy What's your solution? Plough it up and grow monoculture crops that will help increase our obesity epidemic?

@teagasc @1GarethWynJones what the fuck is going on? Is this what state funding gets us?

@buckleytadhg @IFAmedia One form of carbon is from fossil fuels and the carbon released by the cows was sequestered from the atmosphere days weeks and months before hand. One is a carbon cycle the other is net emissions

@LeoVaradkar You've lost alot of votes, closing down at Christmas for a milder version of covid. The three clowns running this country love the power. We are well able to think for ourselves and don't need you thinking you're saving us.

@cooper_m You can drink in a residents bar after 8 but not a pub. Who makes up this crap

@soildivil1 Good man Robbie.

@barrydavislouth He loved being up front with you Barry on our European/UK trips. The craic in the minibus was the highlight of those trips. Great memories I'll have forever.

@BaseIreland Such a great man with lots of knowledge and lots of devilment. Great memories of bases trips to Europe and the UK with @barrydavislouth at the wheel and Phil up front. You'll be terribly missed brother Phil. Sympathy to his family and friends at this time

@Irishwildlife What is the 21st century approach to our rivers? I have a cover crop here that is alive with birds. Big and small. It wouldn't be much use underwater.

Third year of #relaycropping. From 5 ha trial in 2018 to 100 ha today. More than ever convinced of what I do.

All cover crop treatments except one show a positive yield increase, 4/4 broadleaf species show significant yield increase in the following barley crop yet by some miracle of data misinterpretation @TeagascCrops have managed to put a negative spin on this slide 🤷‍♂️🤯. OMFG

[mark armitage @notillmark]

@teagasc @TeagascCrops The red writing is the only difference in the two slides.

[mark armitage @notillmark]

Slide on left @teagasc presented yesterday. It takes great skill to be so negative about such positive results. Slide on the right is how it should have been done. Imagine what results they could find in a multispecies cover

@shacklej @HeartLand_S2S @ConnieGrace16 Hey jane that looks really good. How long has it been established?

[mark armitage @notillmark]

@CalCommons How's about you let people make their own life decisions about how they like to deal their emissions? You would be far better to stop eating gm soya beans brought in from south America.
