A memory of the effect of FMD on the radio.
Sorry if it upsets, but it has farmers that were hit by it and the vets and officials that were involved.

It's unclear if the trust intends to return it all to wildlife or operate some/all of the land as a commercial venture.

I wonder who owns the cash....
Probably not the University of Reading
Cash cows
In Saturday's Guardian, sector finance expert Andrew McGettigan broke the news that the University of Reading has referred itself to the Charity Commission and the OfS over questions surrounding the handling of...
I got "gifted" a hedgehog in autumn that hibernated before it got up to release weight. It is beginning to wake up and will need a home and I would like to give it a chance so....
I think that cows are probably its best chance, no slug pellets, probably slugs and snails to eat, not too much...

Here is a move to break the cartel that supermarkets have and make it legal. If it becomes law before we leave then it may be binding here.
The reason for doing it - to cut...
@matthew Could you sanity check this for me. Someone has been funded to combine TB [very good at hiding itself from immune responses] with MRSA [not terribly responsive to drugs] to wake up the immune system and fight back. This surely has to be a level 4 biosecurity hazard. and generally a...
@admin Yet another post has come up that needs the sympathy icon [https://thefarmingforum.co.uk/index.php?threads/shite-day.128914/].
I believe that by talking to these people you could arrange for them to alter there code in a minor way to support this...
Not sure if this deserves a thread of its own. The value in the company may well be in the data not the product:

Here are a few of those that will be among the more affected by the removal of the CAP:
RSPB £4,053,035.54
National Trust £10,056,973.87
Forestry Commission England £2,016,984.82
Beeswax Farming (Rainbow) Ltd £1,397,106.20
@admin @llamedos Could we have the Brexit thread removed from the recent posts thread in the same way that I think off topic is. It is important, but it does clutter up the farming theme of the forum.
I am on TFF because it is a farming forum, but the Brexit thread in the vast majority is...
This is terrifying, the tractor that was hit by a train in Thetford had received permission to cross the line. He was half way across was hit by a train travelling at 84mph...
America has this engine management software even worse than us:

I admit it, I have opted out of as many media trackers and ads as I possibly can. Ad blocker, Google max opt outs and I may have sent a couple of ip's to local host. But currently and unexpectedly only TFF is failing to load pages and exit elegantly as I block all the stuff I don't want [and my...
I sometimes find the site slow, admittedly I am at the far end of what behaves like a bit of string with some of badly spliced joins in it, but there are a high proportion of very large pics to load.
If you could automagially reduce them to a civilised <100kb size it could save a large amount on...
it is posts like this:
- and there are many more, that really don't need a "like" button.
Please can we have a "sympathise" or "feel your pain" one? . There are many situations that are just acts of God or genuine bad luck and to comment seems unhelpful, but to give the poster a feeling of...
Deere 's lawyers say you are purchasing a right to use but can't own it because their software is in it. Oh the Land of the Free what wonders you invent.
Has anyone had this before? Went to do the first cut of the year and when I engaged the mower blades the engine died. Drove round the garden a couple of times to warm the thing up and still no joy.
