We are down to the Final 10 tickets, and you won't be getting in without them! There is a great line up of speakers including a packed Political panel post budget...so Farmer friends get yourself booked on!
Selling like hotcakes - only 14 farmer tickets left - another sell-out imminent...
It will be fascinating to hear reflections on the budget from @DanielZeichner, @timfarron, @_RobbieMoore @FGRachaelBrown and others...

All set up and ready to go @northcountyshow today, helping Charlotte on the Redeswood stand and representing @SoilAssociation out and about and I’ll be on the @DefraGovUK stand later. Come talk to us about trees and schemes!
We had a fantastic training day to launch this #fieldlab I'm excited to see what the next few years bring!
Brilliant start to the Innovative Farmers & @PastureForLife #fieldlab last week in the Yorkshire Dales.
This #farmerled research will explore how livestock trampling can control bracken – a burden for many #uplandfarming businesses - whilst positively impacting #biodiversity🦋
Myself and @jerryalford123 are doing a #FutureFarmResilience Grassland focussed webinar tomorrow night, discussing options and eligibility for SFI etc. with @CotswoldSeeds Sam Lane.

Great meeting at home last week with the Fold Farm Vets Beef discussion group. The rain held off enough for @RhidianJones2 to lead the group through chats about forage, grass and wintering options. – at North East, England

This is great to see! Hope many more councils follow suit! What do you think @N_landCouncil Well done @CAupdates for your hard campaigning.

We where pleased to have the opportunity to bend
Sion and Alistair's ears about farming in the park and the associated projects. Also pleased to see the announcement that Farming in Protected Landscape's project has been extended for another year!
Thanks to members from across @NlandNP @NorthPennAONB & @lakedistrictnp who helped host a fact-finding tour for @Sion_McG, Dep Director with @DefraGovUK, looking at what it's like to farm in a protected landscape. We had a cold but really useful 2 days! nfuonline.com/updates-and-in…
Still wondering what the best route forward is after @DefraGovUK latest announcements? Join the @SoilAssociation 's Farming and Land Use team for our next Future Farm Resilience Fund event on Wednesday evening.
