[Mark Tufnell @TufnellMark]

@TonyJuniper @NaturalEngland Delighted to continue working with you on the Board; there is still much to do.

[Mark Tufnell @TufnellMark]

@JanetHughes @DefraGovUK Many congratulations on all of the excellent engagement work you do with farmers and landowners. So pleased you have been nominated.

[Tony Juniper @TonyJuniper]

Encouraging assessment of role environmental schemes can play in supporting efforts of farmers for Nature recovery in England. One finding is how advice & support for land managers can increase positive impact. That’s one of the things @NaturalEngland does https://t.co/wdiXRuemCc

[Country Land & Business Assn @CLAtweets]

The move towards Environmental Land Management schemes (ELMs) was always going to be difficult - but it is a path worth taking, for the sake of food production and the environment. 1/4

[Mark Tufnell @TufnellMark]

@LinesMartin So pleased to read comments from Martin about UBI. Public payments for public goods should remain at the heart of ELMs. Flat rate payments for just being a ‘farmer’ is fraught with complications.

[Jo Churchill @Jochurchill_MP]

A really interesting catch up with @CLAtweets President @TufnellMark and @CathCrowtherCLA at the #SuffolkShow. Talking through barriers to rural productivity and the rural economy🌾🚜👩‍🌾

Great to speak with ⁦⁦@Ed_Miliband⁩ today about the opportunities for renewable energy in the Celtic Sea.

It is vital that we approach this in the right way as we look to hit net zero, gain energy self-sufficiency and transform our local economy in #Pembrokeshire

[Henry Tufnell MP @TufnellHenry]

Absolutely delighted and honoured to have been selected to represent Mid and South Pembrokeshire for Welsh Labour at the next general election. Let the hard work begin! 🌹🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

“It is a false choice between protecting the environment and producing food. I reject that view.” Mark Tufnell, President @CLAtweets speaking @EoEFC.

[Cath Crowther @CathCrowtherCLA]

“Producing food has to be profitable and we should be rewarded for providing public good.

We don’t need to choose between feeding the nation and the environment.”

@TufnellMark @CLAtweets speaking @EoEFC

[George Dunn @georgewdunn]

Very useful introductory meeting with new @DefraGovUK SoS @theresecoffey today which @tenantfarmers attended jointly with @CLAtweets . Discussed turbo charging rollout of #SFI and working smarter to deliver the objectives of #LNR. Also discussed productivity and #RockReview

[Mark Tufnell @TufnellMark]

Following swift action in response to this possible case I can confirm that testing has enabled me to fully rule out presence of #FootandMouth disease.

Guidance notes on @CLAtweets with the details

Hedges and integrated pest management standards next year…could be great but devil is on the detail.
