I too was delighted to share a few thoughts for @tenantfarmers on new entrants and progression in agriculture.
Stronger partnerships, innovation and long-term planning can help build a more profitable, productive and resilient farming sector. Enjoyed answering @nationaltrust’s questions for their latest β€˜Land Matters’ magazine.

The current 25 year roadmap looks like a road to nowhere @tenantfarmers @amcarmichaelMP Has left huge numbers of farmers without the BPS or any other forms of funding. Need to a review of future funding schemes

Tomorrow we stand by our farmers; we stand in the countryside. This is for food security, which is national security. It is The Yorkshire Post at its campaigning best, working alongside the people of Yorkshire to make a point and to make it loudly.

A new generation of farmers will need new tenancies to access the industry. The Rock review concluded a minimum of 8yrs was needed for new tenancies. @angelaeagle could make this happen and help @tenantfarmers #foodsecurity #nationalsecurity

Great promises , making sure farmers have access to longer term tenancy’s is a simple but vital part of farmings future. Drought resilience is about long term rotations and years of preparation creating fodder stocks, things that done happen in 3 or 5 years but 10 or 20

🧡As a tenant farmer, I think the impact of solar on @tenantfarmers is still largely missing from the debate. When farmland is taken out of agriculture, we talk about energy generation, landowners, planning and income. BUT…⬇️

Great piece by @georgewdunn CEO @tenantfarmers - pretty much agree with all of his piece "If agriculture matters to food security, rural employment, welfare and environmental management, policy must allow viable farm businesses to deliver those outcomes" edp24.co.uk/news/26497423.te…
