I have a lot of integrity and I haven't trolled anyone ever. That seriously made me think that maybe the panorama program was indicative of the sort of people that farmers are. I didn't come into this forum thinking that. But seriously guys. You want to change people's minds about farming then...

Apparently my comments have been altered for alleged trolling. Asking for evidence is not trolling. That is an outright abuse of power Mark. I hope you can live with your conscience

I suggest you go and do some research? lols. did you just tell me to go google it? Ah well, that gets the hand then. The automatic response of every single person who doesn't have anything to back up what they are claiming. Enjoy trolling thin air. I've got a couple of cupboards to pull out and...

Please tell me how that compares with other food production.. water use for cattle for example. Are you suggesting that we eat nothing at all. Or are you suggesting a proven more sustainable alternative?

'I don't need to prove anything'... well there you have it then. I'll just take your word for it. Totally non biased word with no ulterior motive.

I understand exactly what he wrote and that it was his perspective. You don't need to be an expert to understand that. If you've got something to prove that those crops are damaging and especially in relation to other crops, then please provide it. Instead of trying to claim some sort of...

His claims that root crops are damaging, especially in relation to other types of agriculture. I'd like to see a like for like on land use, water use, offrun, emissions etc. Come back to me with that, we know what it will say.

I've already said 1) that there are a small number of places that certain types of agriculture are not suitable for 2) do we need to use every single piece of land in the UK for food production? Why do you insist on not reading what I've said and intentionally misinterpreting it. As I've now...

I look forward to you providing a statistical analysis comparing it with other types of agriculture, instead of your somewhat biased opinion.

Anything produced on a commercial scale has some environmental impact, there are always pros and cons. It's about choosing the lesser impact where we can. You really are scraping the bottom of the barrel if you are going to claim root veg as the problem

Why would you guess that? Are you claiming that it is not possible to grow crops in any part of those areas? I've acknowledged that there may be a small number of areas where animal agriculture 'may' be the only solution from a food production perspective (providing we are saying that we...

Why not?

We aren't talking about how suitable it is for animal agriculture, we are talking about how suitable it is for only animal agriculture and not other forms of agriculture.

Do they? In what way?

I'm guessing it's because they had to remain incognito, or the behaviour that was being reported on would have changed for the camera? It's the same with all reporting.

I don't get my nutritional information from google. I get it from university studies, new scientist, BDA etc. And I'm pretty clued up on it in general. It's actually an area of interest in terms of change of profession. As for the 16% coconut oil in meat subs, that must be one specific...

UK. South east (currently) I understand that the nature of farming land is very different around the country and that certain areas are definitely more conducive to certain types of farming and I think this is one of the only real arguments for animal farming in certain areas (though still I...

That's definitely a conversation in vegan circles. I do in the main eat healthily with just an occasional sub. I've always been a big veggie eater though anyway. I do a lot of stews etc. I might well be one of the most lucrative customers for spring greens, carrots, potatoes and onions 😂 (sorry...

Well, that comment makes no sense at all. I'm presuming it's some sort of veiled insult, because you don't like the information I've provided. Which incidentally I had no intention of even getting into, but I don't like to see others posting misinformation unchallenged. Thank you to those...

And here's another one. More specifically relating to soy https://www.newscientist.com/lastword/mg24332431-300-beef-with-tofu-is-local-beef-better-for-the-planet-than-tofu-imports/
