Hi James, U are an engaging, enthusiastic entrepreneur, Lucky to have your cousin Michael, Agronomist like a vet/stockman, knowing when a crop needs attention,as they can not speak like animals, solving problems before they become disasters. Hope you understand ,as not as intelligent or articulate as U. How you cope with everything happening on the farm is mind blowing. Take care and Good luck for the winter.

I agree with your Lorry driver! I drove a lorry for 25 years and when in Europe the facility’s are far better and your far better looked after, trouble is the motorway services charge you £35 ish to park overnight so no wonder lorry’s park in lay-bys then you get your fuel nicked you can’t win.

It’s sad to see the infrastructure of contracted farms gradually falling into disrepair eg roof gutters running over / hanging down, barn doors closing due to maintenance, trees hedges not being cut back leading to shading of crops/ loss of field area etc, etc etc. In some cases if it can’t be done from a tractor seat jobs don’t get done , very poor basic farm/ estate management THAT ISNT TAUGHT AT UNIVERSITY 👎🏻👎🏻

Good to see your local MP Ian Sollom (Liberal Democrat) is engaging with you and showing an interest in your agribusiness. I believe it will be a big eye opener for him and an educational visit seeing as he is from a non agricultural background. The Agricultural community who are in Labour constituencies, need to rally together and put diplomatic pressure on their MP’s to persuade them to support the agriculture community. Sadly, it will be a hard job as irrespective as to how they react to the dialogue from the farmers, they will always be looking after themselves and their parliamentary positions within the Labour Party so they don’t fall foul of the Party leaders. Great to see you are actively clearing out dykes and getting them to run, a very important and often forgotten activity amongst farmers. Back in the 1960’s (before you were a twinkle in your dad’s eye) my father used to put a dyking machine on the back of a Ford 4000 and all it did through winter was clean out dykes. Great content and good to see staff members giving camera time to their respective activities. 🇬🇧🚜👍

Businesses should not pay inheritance tax (IHT)-this tax shouldn’t exist. Imagine TESCO having to pay a 20% tax when their CEO dies! Why should family-run firms bear that burden while large corporations, like those owned by private equity, simply don’t have to? Let’s get TESCO to pay 20% first. We need a tax system that encourages businesses but clamps down on avoidance, and this isn’t it. Labour clearly has no clue.
