The Aldi renegotiation of contracts this year has stunned growers. We do not know what they will be buying but I suspect cattle will go hungry.....

Following swift action in response to this possible case I can confirm that testing has enabled me to fully rule out presence of #FootandMouth disease.
We are currently investigating a suspected case of #FootandMouth disease in Norfolk. Movement restrictions and a 10km temporary control zone are in place on the farm. Preliminary testing does not indicate the presence of disease and further work is underway to fully rule it out.

A second baffling & remarkable kick in the face for UK pig farmers from the Prime Minister of the UK.
"You're not backing down on offending every pig farmer in the country then?" Tom Newton Dunn puts Boris Johnson on the spot over his row with pig farmers at #cpc21. @tnewtondunn | @BorisJohnson

Last night we required an ambulance in a remote, difficult to access area of the farm. 1st real use of @what3words and it took all that difficulty and confusion out of the situation to get the help to where it was needed. Everyone should familiarise with the app, a game changer.

The decision by the EU to grant third country listing status to the UK and approve exports of meat, dairy and other products of animal origin is ‘critical’ step forward. Read NFU President @Minette_Batters' full response here 👇 ow.ly/Kgfj50CTneK

Without effective seed treatments sugar beet looks very unattractive for 2021 drilling. Action is needed now to secure the future of the home grown sugar industry.
I’m sharing my results as I feel these two organisations have there heads in the sand over the Virus Yellows. The people in charge at both seem to think we will just carry on growing as farmers always do. @BritishSugar @NFUSugar
