Baling twine which is then recycled too hold half the gates up and hurdles together in pens ect [emoji23]

Better than paying for it to be taken away by lorry, baled up , trucked to the docks, shipped halfway round the world to be buried or burnt .
I did buy several packs of recycled electric fence posts in the spring , so atleast I've bought some of my own plastic back , brilliant post by the way.

For the amount I use I’ll sooner just put any spare in a bin bag and put it in my household waste bin nobody will ever notice it ... November the 5th gets rid of any spare waste I can’t slowly loose in the house bins

The default approach of ripping into a poster for his approach to farm waste etc demonstrates why British livestock farming is the weakest member of the overall chain. If we want to reverse the trend of control, sustainability and viability then we need to adopt a different mindset, stop kicking each other and use that energy where it counts. On subject - Organic Beef £4.65 Base paid to a neighbour last week, he won’t say where but I don’t doubt it.

Mart report says there were some leaner types of lambs in at Hexham yesterday which were harder to cash. Av was still over £2. I wonder if these lambs were cheaper than store?

On a public forum a sensible post appears which describes how we all have to pay for waste disposal then someone else pops up and says that it is not the case??

My post was not about whether he/you etc were right, it was how “we” as an industry turn on each other even when we are all right.

Ok I get that. It is however important to demonstrate to the wider audience what we have to pay for in order to be able to produce what we do. Such comments undermine what we have to do.
