Had a meeting with nutritionist and we’ve played around with some things and hopefully things will improve. Discussed with vets who also have a nutritionist and run the same program as far as I’m aware...

    Selling unused certified seed

    I want to buy some spare seed my neighbour has, its bought in seed from Frontier, still sealed. Can we legally do this? I know you cannot trade FSS, but this is bought in seed.

    Low input grassland - SFI fertiliser rates

    Does anyone know what the equivalent rates of 12kg/ha of FYM actually correlates to in fertiliser terms? The guidance for LIG1/2 is of no help at all as it just says equivalent amounts of available nutrients as fertiliser.

    RED value in wheat price

    At our county NFU AGM yesterday, in a discussion of the merit (!) of Red Tractor, Kit Papworth (RT crop sector chair) claimed that RT was responsible for up to £20/t of the wheat price due to the RED declaration- can this possibly hold any truth?

    As per the title. The Minette Batters thread is well established, and largely reflects a damning indictment of the NFU’s complicity in the self perpetuating role of the Red Tractor debacle. As I have stated, twice, in this thread I have recently resigned from the NFU on principle. How many...
