the bbc should be ashamed at this cringeworthy production week after week!
would like to think some of those viewing figures felt hungry one day , countryfile viewers watch it with afull stomarch not thinking where there food comes from. the program makes me feel ashamed to be a farmer.Viewing figures.....
Didnt mind Adam, have defended him on here but how he can associated with load of shyt is beyond me , he’s sold out imo, disappointed in him as a farmer and a livestock farmer at associating himself with that clap trap is beyond me, fuking traitor .
Try looking up the biomass of north american forests being shipped to Drax, the whole population planting 1000 trees / day wouldnt keep up.Plant this country up with trees, then cut trees down in Brazil to grow the food for us to import from the land which will have been ploughed and sprayed with all the good chemicals
He will be getting splinters with that indecisionThat's right Hilly, tell us what you really think...

one day the uk the uk will be short of electric we thought ratcliffe ps had been shut down , cooling towers blasting out the other day , ihope they dont get it wrong.That is a disgrace and drax should be shut if it can't burn coal. Importing woodchip from all over the world and calling it green- fudge off.
We don't seem to have anyone to get this stuff acrossI disagree. Why would it be edited out ?
That's more the point. Who is going to go on Countryfile and say that PP is better than trees, with the added benefit of producing nutrient dense food for humans ?
The NFU ? The AHDB ? Both of them say that we need less cows and more trees.
Stop blaming the BBC. The guilty party is UK ag, for being so completely and utterly useless at representing itself.
am i at my age ( over pension age )realistically going to plant trees as a cover for nefarious activities ,there again I can still remember a couple of hours under a weeping willow by a babbling brook on the outskirts of a village having just replenished body and soul with a lunch washed down with a glass or two of the amber nectar with a proper head from the village pub and the unrelenting sun beating down upon my shoulders with a slight breeze to create the music of a rustle in the leaves as the shadows slowly lengthened in the company of she who as discretion dictates will remain nameless. ---------------------- ive just ordered a copse
For God’s sake! Have we really sunk so low as to allowing undertakers touting for business onto this forum?
Have you planted whole fields with close spaced trees like they were doing?I don't see what the big issue is, I've been planting trees and hedges for 20+ years and it's the best thing I've done for the farm, cattle have cover, they eat the crab apples on the floor, loads of birds summer and winter, I've made gallons and gallons of cider and fruit wines, we have an abundance of fire wood usually after the gales, the list goes on.. its the only week I HAVENT shouted at the tv.

all the rainforest beef will have been aged on the ship coming across the Atlantic. Not as though meat packers here can hang beef properly, or stupormarkets educate their customers, or anything.
