RABDF Down to Earth, the regenerative livestock farming event, will be hosted at a housed cow unit for the second year in a row; cows milked 3x per day, I understand it to be "high input, high output".
Not knocking confinement systems, but can this system really be regenerative?
I believe that...
I have 3x 15kw turbines, producing around 90000kw intotal per year. Feed in tarriff runs for another 8 years and i think there is maybe a way i can replace them or add another to max out my feed in tarriff payment. Is this a thing? So 45 (kw site) x 24 (hours in the day) x 366 (days in year) =...
Destroyed OSR as a reliable break crop in the U.K. while welcoming in imports grown using chemicals they banned here on the flimsiest of evidence for populist reasons. If that isn’t duplicitous then I don’t know what is.
At the next election when I go into the polling station I’ll remember this.
Hello,
I believe there's a few members on here, who have EWT 500kw turbines?
I was wondering how everyone is finding EWT/Full circle now?
My past experience has been fantastic over the years, but as of late it seems to have really dropped off.
As of this year I'm standing at 81 % availability...
I have an Xzeres wind turbine which blows an inverter occasionally. Unfortunately I'm having to wait up to nine weeks for a replacement so I could do with a spare to have on hand.
Anybody on here have a Windyboy they would sell? It's an SMA 6000A.
I want to make a no more than 50 metre gravel track into a clay field for car access only.
I can dig a hole and get the gravel from an adjacent field. I thought as gravel will be sourced on farm then no p permission needed.
We have always jfdi in the past.
I’ve been sent these links to these machines and they are both genuine sales and the hrs are genuine yes they are ex Ukraine but it does highlight the life that is achievable with these machines, makes you think...
Looks like the wonderful scot gov have managed to push through something today, can't find out if it's an immediate ban or not. Some sort of licensing scheme apparently 😡
Good morning, as part of my university dissertation research, I am investigating dairy stakeholders attitudes towards climate mitigation strategies.
So far the results have shown over 35% of UK dairy farmers have engaged with some-form of climate mitigation strategy, with a further 90%...
Hi All. I am in the process of purchasing a Claas Quadrant 4000 square baler. it will be used for paddy straw square baling which we supply for CBG ( compressed bio gas ) to a local plant and to some rice mills as fuel ( burn) for the boilers . The High pressure steam is used by the turbines for...

The National Sheep Association (NSA) has said that its biennial Scot Sheep 2024 event will feature an “extensive” trade stand area.

Bit hazy about how it was left at the end of the series, but I remember wondering how it was going to add up buying the farm as well as starting the dairy and building the processing unit.
But wow, that's a slick bit of work :(...
Sainsbury's and Tesco's online deliveries been stopped with software problems. people are now going to have to leave the house to go shopping! Not accepting card payments either. Cash is king imo.

Heard this said plenty of times, but really if you have a small farm turning over a relatively small amount say £1-200k you are only ever going to be able to make so much money no matter how efficient you are or how well you sell your produce. The only way to increase profits is to increase...
2nd consultations underway for pylons across Scotland. Going off the new maps of the refined routes it looks ike they ignored all community feedback from my area and many others and are just carrying on regardless.
Proposed 60acre substation at Beauly has now increased to 870 acres, although...
