I hope Conservative MPs will back the PM in the vote today. We need no distractions from seeking the best outcome with our neighbours, friends and partners in the EU.

I love watching a crop emerge through a thick residue mat. We received 0.60” this morning and I can walk anywhere I would like in this field and still have clean shoes. I think that we are on the right path to healthier soils.

Paul Temple talking BRILLIANT sense on farm/food/environmental issues @Oxfordfarming. This is a human issue, not a farming issue. But media likes a monster story, and farmers/chems portrayed as the villain.
