Farming today this morning, ELMS trial, three people, a farmer and two advisors, talking about moving a fence, nobody seemed quite clear to what end, you could almost hear the desperation in their voices, searching to make sense of it all. I felt sorry for them. Is this how it is going to be ? Thousands of advisors swallowing up all of the money, trying to find deckchairs to shuffle ?

Perhaps there should be a clause limiting any advisers to no more than £10 hourly rate to be fair to the farmers earning even less.....
