“How small robots may kill the tractor & make farming efficient: among the latest developments in agri-tech are small, #farming #robots that can improve crop yield and reduce farming’s impact on the environment.” We’ve made @WIRED 🤓🤖🌾😎 #Agritech wired.co.uk/article/farmin…

.⁦@SmallRobotTom⁩ being very cool doing his demo today ⁦⁦@Groundswellaguk⁩ ……another step nearer “per plant farming” for regenerative agriculture. Great to catch up with ⁦@samjwj⁩ ⁦@SarraMander⁩ and the SRC team, and admire the new branding!

"We want to just have some checks & balances in place to make sure that farmers in this country are not undermined, which has been a cast iron commitment from the Prime Minister & this government." @Minette_Batters speaking to @IanKingSky this morning on Australia/UK trade 🇦🇺🇬🇧

Might anyone else still have one of these? This one’s hanging by our back door, it always reminds me to ‘come home safely’. Farm safety isn’t a slogan. #yellowwellies

Maybe a bit to the point....

Q: "As we move to more of a green economy, are we at risk of reducing food production to meet our net-zero pledge?" A: "Absolutely, categorically, no. It is never about producing less. It is about producing more but impacting less on less land." @Minette_Batters #NFUlive Q&A

"The NFU is working on the long game. We are approaching seven years of transition and we have your backs in all of this." @Minette_Batters discusses how the NFU is working to support members on future agricultural policy. Log on to join #NFUlive now ow.ly/l1Q650CxSfU
