Fast forward 20 years and I’ll wager half the things we regret having happened were done in the name of ‘reducing emissions’ Single trait genetic selection is nearly always a disaster in the long run

When supermarkets cut the prices they charge they don’t pay the same price to the supplier and take the hit themselves… they force their growers/suppliers to take the hit for them… they are giving away the farmers money to drive people in store to make £ on other products

The Bake Off' chalk stream! The SSSI River Lambourn, Lambourn has had 2 months of unrelenting untreated 💩 + other items 🤮 pouring into it. An appalling & unacceptable ongoing pollution and health hazard reported numerous times by residents to Thames Water 💧 Water & Environment Agency

We all want to do more to prevent climate change and reduce our carbon footprint, but policy has to match our ambitions, not undermine them along with our production.

It is bizarre that food production (which keeps us alive) gets more pressure to reduce its footprint than fast fashion, totally unnecessary flights for holidays, the film industry & motorsports. I’m not saying we don’t have a part to play but the legislative focus seems warped.

Amid the doom and gloom of wet fields and lack of spring drilling, a good news story! Lapwing nests a plenty! @gamewildlifeconservationtrust are surveying our fallow nesting plot on top of our hill and after spotting 14 birds last week, found a number of nests across the plot

I was in a room with the SoS two weeks ago when the farmers present could not have been clearer on the desperate straits many face; there were even tears. We’ve already lost 7,000 farms under this government; recycling previously unmet promises isn’t going to cut it.
