We have just published our last LAMMA 24 video, a summary of all the pictures and YouTube suggested a video from back in 2017. What a throwback to see the old style LAMMA. It has changed massively and I think for the good.
Does anyone really long for the cold days outside in Peterborough...
Received a reminder email today for this.
Just a quick reminder that the Westminster Hall debate: e-petition 643216, relating to the Groceries Supply Code of Practice, secured by the 100,000+ signature petition “Reform the Grocery Supply Code of Practice to better protect farmers”, organised by...
Got sent this on email. On the face of it, UK is doing well.
I'm guessing this is based on overall size of the country as opposed to just cropped area (USA always touted as a heavy user of CP products). But not 100% sure.
But surprised France as worse than us - must be viticulture having...
After our first Covering Soils event where Peter-Jan Jongenelen came over from Holland to speak, we are aiming to bring over more speakers from abroad for days.
Who would you like to listen to (again) or for the first time? Ideally European.
Not something you see everyday, but ex-SAS serviceman Mick Hawkes is available to help with his daughter.

He also might be useful when @Clive is in a room with the NFU.
I received this email from David Eudall from AHDB this morning. Thought you would all appreciated an update:
"The discussion over moving to a Digital Grain Passport system has been ongoing for a number of years and is being proposed to bring several benefits to the industry, such as real-time...
I'm trying to get a list together of every farming publication out there, as we are planning a new publication launching in November and we want it to have a unique angle.
Could you let us know what magazines/publications you read the put a star next to the one you like the most?
We have a new advertiser on TFF (you will see their banners showing around the site in June) and they have a competition running to win a week's hire of an Electric UTV. Hopefully a TFF'er can win this an do a bit of write up on this thread about what its like in a farm environment.
I can...

Article from New Scientist magazine looking at what the water companies have been doing.
More an upgrade than a new launch, but this morning sees the launch of our TFF TV Realm. This will allow us to better integrate video and podcast content and allow it to be sorted, found and broadcast around TFF. Being our first release - it is by no means the finished product. But we wanted...
Saw this article and didn’t realise it was on the cars so soon. Interesting guesses on future populations too.
I dont know much much about farming in India. How self sufficient are they?
Came across my desk that the first shipment of low carbon fertiliser came into the UK this week. At first I thought they meant FYM - but no. This is Calcium AN product made using biomethane. Which they say has a 50% lower Carbon Footprint at manufacturer.
This is a sponsored exercise by a...
Read a report this week that stated the population bomb often talked about in the news most likely won’t happen.
that population will peak at 8.8bn later this century. Given it’s already at 8bn this is lower than I expected.
however given that we waste a horrific amount of food currently...

I have been speaking with a few other groups in other countries and it seems "Direct Drilling" doesn't always translate in the way we use it in the UK. We have made the decision to use regen ag in the aim of getting some more international experience within these pages so we can all learn a...
