The only thing it has done is deny access to markets for non assured levy payers.Dim Jim goes on about RT giving access to markets which is total bo##ocks.Befors RT everybody had access to all markets.

Absolutely.

There does need to be a vote as they've stalled on RT and the review along with the inequality with imported cereals.They certainly don't appear to support their levy payers assured or not. Maybe,just maybe there are things going on behind scenes,won't hold my breath though.

And the imported won't be traceable back to farm of origin and will be unassured 😡😡

Being it was late I've sown my Lynx at 200 kg/ha.I remember, many years ago making a cock up and sowing Beans at 185 kg/ha.It was one of the best yields we have grown.Pods everywhere.

Not so much what's popular but they,all too often these days, pander to the loud,minority who shout the most

Is that the same AHDB that said,last Autumn,plantings were only 1% less than normal ? We pay them millions and all they do is regurgitate market information other sources be it accurate or not. I think my 8 year old Grandaughter could do a better job.

And it's nothing to do with deer. Started the 2nd N application on Wheat yesterday and I had to drive a quarter of the wheel over on the headland tramlines to prevent puddles created from previous passes spraying everywhere and to level the soil a little.It wasn't too bad, I thought,as I drove...

And you forgot the fat cat bonuses and large staff salaries for preciding over a company that no longer fulfils the job of managing the rivers and environment.

Improved market access! How on earth can they claim this when it's the polar opposite of denying access for growers who aren't members.

The Emperor fountain,the tallest gravity fed fountain in the World.Designed by my great,great,great Uncle. There you go a bit of useless information. 🙂

I wondered if they had canvassed their members too,think they may be a little disingenuous with this claim. I stand to be corrected though.

Have they ? Surely they can't claim that ,Tom Bradshaw was on the RT board meeting that approved GFC unanimously.

Lambed a ewe last night and the lamb,although very bright,seems unable to suck on the teat.I milked her out and tubed the lamb and repeated 3 hours later.The colostrum/milk was fine.Went to do it a third time and the milk was pink from,I assume,a little blood in it.The udder is soft and...

I suggested protein payments to Janet Hughes.Good for the environment by improving our soils,less importing of Soya,Palm oil,Maize grain etc so lessening our carbon footprint. She was not interested at all.

Yes and who are they accountable to. They weren't very flexible with the non assured,non traceable imported wheat entering our mills of which uk farmers who aren't members of RT are denied access.

if you don't mind me asking where you are in Wales and was it a local dealer ? PM if you prefer.
