Well it is October. Making a start removing the evidence of the worst crop of peas I've ever grown. Wheat seedbed is 👌🏼.
Sure. 🙄🫠

Following the tragic and untimely death of an utterly brilliant person and farmer @BeaumontRobert, a fundraiser has been set up to support his family.
A true loss to the world and our industry. Please give generously.

Harvest 2027 away. Because doing things the same & expecting a different result is absolutely the sensible solution! 😱🙃

Not a phone call you want to receive. A call from our neighbour John to say their field was on fire, slung a cultivator on to go and help. As we were getting the fire under control another field fire broke out about half a mile away. An unbelievable effort of 8 tractors & 3 Telehandler from 6 different farms, with tankers & cultivators coordinating with a rapid response from the Fire Brigade meant they were under control with minimal damage. Without those tankers being full & ready to go this could have been much worse. Both fires caused by overheating electricity transformers. A lesson to me, just because harvest is over doesn't mean the fire risk is.
