Well done to @AHDB for engaging with us all on here.
They have answered some fairly tough and agressive questions on why we should pay levies and the need for an increase in the levies.
They have certainly gone up in my opinion, as I was beginning to think we would be no worse off if we lost...
I have been posting about this pincer movement on other threads but you haven't been reading it. You do need to.

Good afternoon all,
I wanted to let you know that we've opened the Sustainable Farming Incentive for applications today.
You can find a summary of what's available in this initial rollout here: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/a-summary-of-the-sfi-in-2022 - we'll be expanding the scheme to cover...
Looks like the NFU have done a right number on arable farmers.

Nothing to do with poltics or unfaithful partners.
I found a trio of dead rats in the barn, half grown & then loading some small bales, I saw another one same size but very much alive. It dived between two bales but its tail was visible, should I have grabbed it.

You've heard about the lab-grown meat future that the Davos/WEF lot want for us. It seems a distant prospect to most of us. But maybe not. Like a co-ordinated pincer movement they are...
I know there’s another general BG thread but this is just a particular question about chemicals.
Basically what are your ‘chemical’ approaches to BG. We aren’t doing a proper job so looking for ideas please.
Up until now we have not had a problem with black grass. But one field seems to have got away on us. It’s first wheat after osr and would expect it yield about 10t/ha. There is not enough grass to effect the yield but too much to pull by hand. The area is about 12ac which would be about 4% of...
From https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-56807520 today.
Radical new climate change commitments will set the UK on course to cut carbon emissions by 78% by 2035, Boris Johnson will announce this week.
Hitting the targets would require more electric cars, low-carbon heating, renewable...
A few years ago,a few enterprising individuals invested in farming ventures in Eastern Europe (land that used to be owned by RUSSIA)..
What happened to that idea / ideal.??
Did one or two TFF members venture out there?
What was the outcome, are they still farming out there?
Got a mile or so of reasonable Height hedge to coppice out and considering our options.
there are always other jobs where shears would come in handy, we have a 7.5t and 3.5 t machine and labour to run them over the winter.
we had a 13t in with shears recently who did a great job but cost a...
Direct drilling on heavy clay soils is tricky. There is a lot of great advice out there, but from those on many different soil types. As direct drilling hinges on soil I thought it would be useful to have a thread based on heavy-ish clay soils alone.
just to kick it of; we have a Weaving GD...
I was pulled over by the police today on an A road.
He was not a traffic officer, just a standard officer.
He claimed I was illegal as I did not have extended wing mirrors on my Hilux and as a result had restricted rear view.
(Lights and number plate all fully working and present)
I was some...
