Assistance required! We are looking to conduct midge repellent trials on horses and we need 3 to 6 dark coloured horses for a couple of nights. This needs to be in a place with a lot of midges (west of Scotland preferably). Can you help or want more info? Please get in touch.

For businesses being required to report nature impacts from both up- & downstream value chains, how should this data be collected/shared? Be interested to know farmers thoughts on this as in time this will be a requirement in all industries. brc.org.uk/news/csr/tnfd-โ€ฆ

Swallows have arrived this morning, three days earlier than the past two years and 10 days ahead of the previous norm. While swallows might not make a summer, these awesome birds always make me happy ๐Ÿ™‚

I'd urge farmers to read and respond to this. Looks like more change afoot for farming as government aim to reduce its area and increase yields on best land. Rest will be planting trees
