    Farming in Wales

    Likewise picked up on the blog due to Baldrick. Very well put together analyses of many sorry situations. In this latest, learning about the existence of ,and what OPD's are is a revelation .(One Planet Development). Explains some of the "shacks" cropping up seemingly unopposed by authority...

    Welsh Sustainable Farming Scheme AND Protests

    Drakeford reminds one of the closing scenes of a psychological murder drama. The shabby,narcissistic,evil character is finally caught with knife in hand. Breaks down with the claim that "he/she/they made me do it"! He will be saying voices in his head guide him next.

    Is SFI panicking farming suppliers?

    You are correct in pointing out that farmers support a large population of supplier employees. But you're looking down the wrong end of the telescope regarding the repulsive salaries comment. It's farming returns and wages that are way out of kilter.

    Who’s rights?

    Agree with this! Don't put ideas in the neighbours heads either.

    Igloo Energy and Barratt Smith Brown

    Very different to when an energy company I had been dealing with went bust, but they owed me money. Years of paperwork and sod all at the end of it. Who were the liquidators dealing with Igloo? Don't they have some responsibility to ensure the debts they have supposedly sold on are legit and...

    Sugar beet price 2024

    I am just an interested onlooker concerning beet threads on the forum. (Used to be involved in growing many years ago). Quite dumbfounded at how BS can take the stance they have on price, when the market is positioned where it is. And the inclusion of those additional terms in the "rogue"...

    Stuck drain grid

    I have struggled with one just like this quite a few times, maybe fractionally larger. Chain on the telehandler always eventually shifted it. But had to try many points on the grid to lift until find one that gives a fraction of movement, then you focus on it and get a "wiggle on". Would deffo...

    Genus charging by the hour for inseminating cows

    I used to think just like you, that 50-60 cows was not sufficient to get good enough on DIY. That was until I got so hacked off with Genus costs and the revolving door of flaky techs we had in our area. I wasn't the best on the insemination course I did, but once you get home and practicing, one...

    Trying to find a paramotor friendly farmer in South Leics

    Can't say I would, up very high, flimsy? Main reason why not is I won't be here much longer. Has the OP considered approaching Bruntingthorpe airfield? Definitely seen those types of craft coming and going from there. Doubt they would do it out of the goodness of their heart though.

    Pensioneer farmer gets fined hard for TB test refusals

    Feel really sorry for the old boy. "There by the grace" go many of us, with all the crap that is around at the present time. Drip, drip and pushed to the brink and some....

    Generator Question

    Thanks for replies. I have wiring diagrams and located breakers which are ok. ph to n is 232v and ph to ph is 402. It has had an overvoltage event according to the log. I think @bill and bens dad is probably on the mark. Am told it could be a relay that has burnt out, but why the breaker didn't...

    Generator Question

    I have a diesel powered generator, about 20kva, about 5yrs old. It has both a 3 phase and a single phase outlet. Made it available to some guys doing work on farm. They would have used the single phase. Went to use it afterwards, the three phase outlet appears to work fine ( 232 volts on each...
