I tried to distill why farmers are so angry into a single tweet. Summery as follows - We’ve had enough of working for nothing, to produce something everyone needs, while being told we’re doing a shit job of it, by people who’ve never done it.
I think that covers it?
Looking for independent advice on heating/solar/electric supply solutions on a new build farmhouse. (Not yet built) If anyone has any contacts? – at Yatton, England

I dealt with the Supermarkets from 1986-2012. They were brutal and competition fierce once supermarket ‘saturation’ occurred in the mid 1990’s and market share was the aim. We shouldn’t underestimate the role Supermarkets have played in today’s situation.
Crutching ewes through our new rappa Racegrip. Brilliant piece of kit! @RappaFencing #sheep

Nucleus Highlanders lambing at Southfield, they never fail to impress us! Phenomenal maternal ability and lamb vigour. Scanned at 208%,these ewes will keep most of their lambs alive. Purebreds may scan too high for many but one cross can dramatically improve a flock’s performance

No pot of gold at the end of the rainbow here in Somerset, just highlander replacement ewe lambs! Very similar 😉! @InnovisLtd #highlander #sheep
Overseeded some clover in to a 5 year old ley 4 weeks ago. Clover has taken really well. @CotswoldSeeds
