No prizes for guessing when grants for drainage stopped……funding that benefited UK ag for generations and continues to do so……but they won’t last forever. Soils are essential and it starts with drainage. Defra UK River Mease Catchment Rob Burtonshaw The NAAC

Area of UK agricultural field drainage installed 1950-1993… Rob Burtonshaw reckons the level hasn’t much increased until recent years. Huge implications for soil health, agricultural productivity & water quality of a drainage cliff-edge from life-expired schemes.

Wrapped up one of the final projects of the year! Grateful Mother Nature cooperated, allowing us to get acres tiled and ground prepped for a strong start to planting in 2025. ✅🌱🚜

2024 wasn't just the warmest year on record. It was the moistest year on record, too. Atmospheric moisture was above average for 86% of Earth. A warmer planet is a wetter planet. The trend is unmistakable:

For much of the UK 2024 was warmer, wetter and duller than average. For some counties in central and southern England it was one of the wettest years on record. Excellent annual report here carbonbrief.org/met-office-a-r…

‘Regenerative Agriculture Starts Underground’ My piece in Direct Driller on why field drainage is the most important part of the regenerative transition which nobody is talking about (or even, in many cases, aware of) 💦 directdriller.com/regenerative-a…
