This is genius - edible DNA!

Fascinating day accompanying @SP_RECcttee to @BES_ScotPol visit on-site James Hutton Institute SEFARI Gateway - loads covered, fascinating to hear about inter-cropping, incl modern kit which can sort different grains when harvested; plus Brexit, climate and much more...

Graeme Cook @SP_RECcttee @BES_ScotPol James Hutton Institute SEFARI Gateway ES James Hutton Rob Brooker Next time we'll literally get attendees up a hill to discuss in more detail the land management challenges & opportunities in the 70% of Scotland's agricultural land that is upland or of upland character.

Excellent collaborative work for Scotland’s Natural Capital, this internationally important research includes support from and underpinned by RESAS strategic programme SEFARI Gateway #leadingideas James Hutton Institute Former NatureScot account Tom McKenna Rob Brooker @RobinPakeman

The threat to #biodiversity is increasingly recognised as a global challenge on a par with climate change, find out in our latest blog how our #LeadingIdeas researchers having been working with others to help sefari.scot/blog/2019/12/0…

#Biodiversity loss and the #ClimateEmergency are indeed intimately bound together; check out this SEFARI Gateway blog post by our very own @alicehague2 SEGS James Hutton and Rob Brooker & Jenni Stockan ES James Hutton sefari.scot/blog/2019/12/0… #LeadingIdeas

Say hello 👋 to the NEW journal from the British Ecological Society : Ecological Solutions and Evidence Applied Ecol. Resources|Ecol. Solutions & Evidence led by @urban_sci as EiC. This excellent thread by Lead Editor Holly Jones explains all: x.com/DocHPJones/sta…

We're excited to see coverage of @johnfinn310's research, presented at #BES2019, in Farmers Weekly on multi-species mixtures on grasslands proving more resistant to drought and producing higher yield stability 👍 fwi.co.uk/livestock/gras…

There is evidence that increasing working hours DOES NOT increase productivity, work less, do more. Remember that academic career is a marathon, not a sprint. Don't burn yourself out! Choose your role models wisely, use happiness as a measure of success

Managing research pressures can be difficult at the best of times. Rob Brooker of the James Hutton Institute reflects on his own struggles to get the balance right during the coronavirus lockdown and finds some steps that might help. ow.ly/eAV950zx25i

Working on workshop notes on the train north.

At SRUC-SEAP conference #ScotAgEnv. Two key issues: what do we want from our environment, and what's stopping us making changes?

Thanks Davy McCracken - nice to see my occasional tweets are read by someone...

@BES_ScotPol Nothing glib - complex situation but probably involves communication, policy integration, changes to CAP

Several fora including @BES_ScotPol #PieAndAPint flag a key question: what do we want from our land? Are those discussions going on?

Thanks to all involved in BES Scottish Policy Group @BES_ScotPol event today at SG Victoria Quay, Edinburgh. Good discussions and new ideas!

Really good day at #ScotBio16 . Thanks to all speakers, chairs and attendees - follow up outputs out soon via SBS web pages. @BES_ScotPol

Great start up meeting last week of DIVERSify project DIVERSify - focussing on breeding for mixtures using an ecological approach

Great insights today from Young Scot during the RSE biodiversity conference #RSEBiodiversity @BES_Scotpol

Well done DIVERSify DIVERSify for a great general assembly meeting in Cordoba - lots of exciting ideas and data
