[QUOTE="Bwcho, post: 8446388, member: 32780"] Done ✔️ I don't claim any farmers dole and after completing that survey I don't envisage that will change any time soon either. I do have a professional career outside of farming and could well be described as a part-time farmer but I'd like to think that I share in common more opinions and fears as a 'proper farmer' as opposed to a goodlifer. Some initial thoughts on the survery are that I would actively discourage and pay THEM not to have any members of the community come on the farm. My gripe with this sustainable farming scheme is that a lot of emphasis is put on carbon capture, which is a reactive measure. I felt this survey could focus somewhat more on reducing CO2 emissions in the first place. No interest in creating a pond and I wish I could afford to use fertiliser. Though I was pleased to learn that the headline '10% tree rule' included hedges and more importantly existing ones would be taken into consideration. 6 day quarantine of animals, a nod to reducing anthelmintic use, soil testing/structure and use of different crops were some of the things I thought was not too unreasonable. Interesting times ahead.... [/QUOTE]
