Conscious of lambing & the fact as a result of #Covid19 restrictions many people are choosing to #selfisolate in the great outdoors 🐕🦺 it is important the public are aware of their responsibilities as pet owners.

Would highly recommend watching Clarksons Farm with @JeremyClarkson , along with his sidekick Kaleb Cooper they show the true nuts and bolts of farming and do it with the right balance of humour and madness you need in this profession. We need more big names backing our industry

Wish I was back in Argentina just now rather than just on a @FASScot webinar on Argentine livestock farming! 6 years ago we travelled on @SAYFCAGAFFAIRS study tour, i literally use knowledge gained from this EVERY DAY. Travel is so important for CPD (and I need to do more!) – at Scotland, United Kingdom

The best way to say thank you to British farmers is to buy British meat. Because we only buy British, when you shop with us, you can be sure you are too.

Front page of the Sun. At the moment the Gold medal for #BackingBritishFarming goes to @Morrisons Not only have I had various members of the Ag team on the phone. I also took a call from Chief Exec Dave Potts asking what more they could do to help. #COVID19 #thankyou
Why are #MPs being offered an extra 10k in expenses? 100s upon 1000s of workers are going the extra mile for their employer atm, inc. longer hours (uncompensated) & that doesn’t consider the VOLUNTEERS. Surely if they cared they could suck it up? #GiveBack #SomeCommunitySpirit – at Leeds, England
