It only takes 5 mins and is dead easy, just tick some boxes. The study is on the use of social media as a form of advisory service for farmers.

Hello I'm an arable and sheep farmer from County Durham, worked on the farm all my life but my old man is finally allowing me to have more control, I'll mainly be looking for advice on spraying or anything to do with lambing! Always on the look out to try new stuff, trying to bring the farm into more modern times

 

[dogus]

Hi,
my name is Dogus and im from Turkey. I'm 17 and interested in farming for a long time. My family got 200.000 m2 farm land but there is nobody who works it. I'm very ambitious to run these lands. I saw this forum and it made me very happy because it is gonna be very useful for me. I hope experienced farmers would help me.
(sorry for english, i just learned this language on net.)

Hi all,
My names John-Allan MacRae (33) and own a 2,000 acre farm on the Isle of Coll on the west coast of Scotland. We run about 30 suckler cows and 300 cross cheviot ewes but are looking to expand soon.
Current yoke is a 12 plate 5455 but waiting on delivery on a 5613 in the next few days, so looking forward to that. Don't really know what else to say?! Not enjoying this weather at the moment.. It's usually into February that the farm turns into a bog, but we're almost there and we haven't even started throwing silage out yet.. Might put the beasts in the shed if this weather stays up. We are usually quite wet and windy but normally it's still very mild due to the Gulf Stream but she's cold this year.. Hand Mits are on the quad early!

Looking forward to contributing/harassing folk for their thoughts and advice!!

Cheers
