Rounded off a fantastic week in Oslo that started with a very successful EWRN's first workshop to connect research efforts toward an all-inclusive IPM against ww. Lots of positive motivations from the 46 participants. More to follow on the website 👉potato-wireworms.com

Looking forward to getting the CUPGRA wireworm trial out of the ground and get assessments done. Looking at a range of compounds and how they influence wireworm feeding, other aspects of IPM are investigated too.

All over the country there are old men and women sitting in farmhouses absolutely terrified that their death will see the end of generations of their family farming their land. I know some of them and cannot overstate the mental anguish this is causing 7/n

Good to know thanks Steve & you’ll just have to learn how to live without the industry that produces food for you & your voters, without the industry that actually looks after the environment rather than just talks about it & without another term in office. Thanks again Minister

My poor dogs hate bonfire night, so they are listening to the Smiths to deafen the noise. And they are NOT miserable now. Nor are they panicking What a difference it makes

NEW DEFRA stats just out. Show that in 2023/24 cereal farm incomes fell by 73% On average cereal farms made a £26k loss on their crops, only earning an income due to direct govt subsidy & non-farming activity. Even so, 1/3 of all cereals farms made a loss despite other income.

Quite amusing that Keir Smarmer is grovelling because they served meat & booze at their Diwali bunfight, quite an own goal old chap. It reminds me of the day AHDB potatoes treated an Egyptian group over here to a....... Hog roast.
