A very fair view of the future from a city, country that is electric powered. https://t.co/2xsm1RpRML

…If you want this level of nature on farms.
grassland and woods, scrubland and wetland, all mixed up together and thriving, then you need to be supporting @PastureForLife @NFFNUK farms, because we need you on our side!

[The EV Puzzle @EVPuzzle]

For those that wonder how I and others afford things ....

We worked hard
We saved up
We don't waste money elsewhere
We paid into a pension
We've been patient

Being sensible is boring...
until it enables you to enjoy the fun stuff

[OAD Rich @RAWfarms]

@EVPuzzle great review liking the Doogee S110 for use on the farm, even better for biking adventures through the forest in the night. Might finally get a pic of a wild boar in FoD with the night vision. Also power out, no more power bank to top up the Garmin.

@Michaelfagwrfra @iandicko73 Not surprised as they leaving them so long they get bigger so the tar doesn't go so far. So is it budget or management getting the job done?

[Everything Electric @Everyth1ngElec]

It's a shame you tried to virtue signal on this specific topic.
Large amounts of cobalt consumed in oil refining, & the device you used to tweet contains cobalt. We are ALL implicated, we ALL need to do better.
And the environmental impact of burning fossil fuel? Nightmare

@forestbrucey191 @NationalGridESO @forestbrucey191 I'm glad your not in charge of the @NationalGridESO as you would would cause us to have lights out with extreme coal smog. Change takes time and its having a big effect #renewableenergy cause less use of air polluting energy generation.

Researchers from GAIN (@TyRBeal), @fao (@Anne_Mottet), @globalfoodteam (@iamMarioHerrero) & @StanfordMed have launched a 🆕 paper on "the role of animal-source foods in healthy and environmentally sustainable diets". More information here. https://t.co/cdaOk95KqE

@Michaelfagwrfra @HefinR @fordcows @PhilNash2 That is a good figure Michael, I would have thought mine would be much higher than yours given we have animals grazing grass for 10mths and only make 900kgDM/LSU of silage. Here 148ltrs of milk per Ltr diesel.

[OAD Rich @RAWfarms]

@fordcows @HefinR @PhilNash2 Maybe it should be Wh and diesel Ltrs/Ltr of milk to show full energy usage.

[OAD Rich @RAWfarms]

@fordcows @PhilNash2 35.2Wh/ltr. Spring calving herd. TAD milking and reduce frequency from July onwards then OAD from October.

@Brian70362077 @HowardCCox @PatrickChristys @GBNEWS @TheSun There’s more cobalt used here for desulphurisation, but that also gets conveniently ignored. These people are allowed to write articles in papers with some reach ffs 🤦🏻‍♂️

@ListerLawrence That statement is proof you are or you can't think for yourself.

[OAD Rich @RAWfarms]

@Richtea80 @ListerLawrence Look at your shared image would suggest differently. All that has been shared is Tesla queue not other networks. This suggests conspiracy or Tesla drivers are brain dead and are not capable of finding or use other network available chargers.

[OAD Rich @RAWfarms]

@ListerLawrence It's just another excuse for a meet up and a coffee or two. Be no time for a coffee if there was a charger was available.

[Pasture For Life @PastureForLife]

"A pure grass & forage based system has dramatically reduced our requirement for inputs inc. #fertiliser, which we now use none. This has improved margins on finished product & helps us meet the demands of our customers who are looking for 100% pasture-fed beef." @EdinvaleFarm

[OAD Rich @RAWfarms]

@EVPuzzle 😵 I guess it's down to cost so is it a case of fine tuning settings?

[OAD Rich @RAWfarms]

@LeverettFarming @Michaelfagwrfra Heard near Wolfscastle to Hayscastle was blocked by a milk tanker.

[OAD Rich @RAWfarms]

@sprinkles785 @LeverettFarming @armstrong_frost Always other possibilities to improve especially with changing restraints from government and use of resorces in a changing environment. Standing still and doing the same is a backward step without exploring alternative approaches.

Travelled across Wales today SW to NE via #Machynlleth. Was shock how 4cm of snow can cause an ice ring. Total lack of council planning
