Arable farmers/mixed farmers growing herbal leys/cover crops or grass leys as a break and grazing cattle as part of their rotation. Anyone willing for a chat on systems, costings, cash crop yield reductions etc… appreciated greatly for part of my Nuffield Farming study. 🙏

What’s at stake for nature in the Autumn Budget? As Rachel Reeves pores over the numbers, here’s what a 20% cut to nature-friendly farming would mean... For a start—an area 3x the size of the Lake District National Park stripped of nature-friendly practices in England. 👇

Harvest home straight, into the beans and vetch intercrop today. Just the spring beans left to go… the sooner this harvest is consigned to the history books the better!
