Just wondered on the state of peoples farms, personally I strongly dislike a messy farm with junk and rubbish getting in the way but not everyone feels as strongly as me it seems unfortunately. Its improving but not its not as good as I would like. How about your farm?
Hi everyone
I'm looking for some advice on how to approach renting between 0.5-1 acre of land for small-scale cut flower production.
I run a small business growing and selling fresh and dried cut flowers, which has been working on a small scale up until this point. I currently grow in my...

Just been to ring a lamb that was passed over first time as his testicles were tiny and tight to his body.

I want to cut docks, thistles, nettles in horse pastures. I want to cut them high so I leave the grass long and uncut.

Just pulled our old one out the nettles, it has hardly been used in 15 years but it will be handy for small jobs instead of going to get rear discharge. It is needing A set of tips/teeth, can these still be bought does anyone know?
Looking to wind up some HT sheep netting to reuse elsewhere.
I know Quickfencer make an attachment with a hydraulic motor that is supposed to make a tidy job of it. Are there any other options that I’ve overlooked?
As I finish off hedging for customers I found myself getting really depressed looking at all this cs and sfi sh!t. Once fields I mowed and baled in some fallow weeds. Fields I fert spread the arable on either fallow stubble or bird seed. The whole lot looks unloved.
Then onto hedges. Got most...
