An gof maybe some of these organisations ought to go down the same route as the ahdb

Well ahdb no longer funding red tractor , let’s hope it is the beginning of the end for it but I won’t be holding my breath.

The comments being posted leave little doubt that the ahdb are losing support, but they will not make the same mistake they made in our sectors, the chances of a yes/no vote are pretty slim, also we had only around 4,000 levy payers to contact and galvanise support, there is around 140,000 in...

Is that the best you can come up with, I wouldn’t have bothered.

I have no need to fiddle the books, highland mule shall we clear your concerns firstly,I said add back depreciation because of the huge amount of investment we have been doing over several years, even this year we will be investing over a million pound in that harvester and automatic planter , I...

P what a load of rubbish highland mule this farm is one if not the most profitable veg enterprise in south Lincolnshire , adding back depreciation we always make around half a million. The value of this farm is put at 10 million any borrowing is completely for investment like the new self...

I would find it difficult to disguise who I am given what I have been trying to achieve.
