@ThrimbyFarms @AndrewRJohns It’s tight margin in ni calves scare

@samchesney1 @AndrewRJohns Is the gap much different than it was 2 years ago?

Baby beef in new sheets. 🐮🥩🍔💩

@ThrimbyFarms @AndrewRJohns Hard to make a good margin they’re looking to much for a dairy bred weanling here

@AndrewRJohns They come to us at 130kgs from a rearing unit.

@cattlefinishers It’s or regen mode 🐂

Red clover ☘️, 8 cuts in, knackered I think and now drought stressed and prematurely in flower. See how it fairs after the forecast fire and brimstone tomorrow ⛈️⛈️. Back into wheat whatever.

@marvinmusk 👍🥩

New CAAV analysis suggests Treasury is out by a factor of five when it says only 500 farmers a year will be hit by IHT. Time for a rethink, surely.... @FarmersWeekly @DefraGovUK @hmtreasury @RachelReevesMP @CAAVAgValuer fwi.co.uk/business/busin…

Thank you all for your support. All of us depend on farmers for food every single day of our lives. The family farms are vital not just for our local communities survival & sustainable locally produced quality food,but also the fight again climate change. Please sign and support

At what point is it time to just say F you. We waste so much time talking and discussing things with “empty vessels” who lie to our faces. Farmers, small business, processors… the list goes on. London 19th of sept is a start but this shit isn’t going away. The knife is in.

@Minette_Batters Farmland values in Northern Ireland currently £25K-£30K/acre. At 25K, 40acres of bare land will exceed the £1M threshold. Virtually every farm in NI is therefore at risk from the IHT change. With a population of circa 2M, NI currently produces enough food for 10M! Go figure.

"We would like an urgent meeting with the Chancellor to explain why this would have such an impact on the fabric of our countryside" ICYMI📻| NFU President Tom Bradshaw (@proagriltd) on @timesradio earlier responding to APR changes. Listen from 01:11:00 👉ow.ly/INRP50TXioo

Our President and Deputy, Aled and Abi, have been busy doing interviews following the Autumn Budget. ICYMI 📻| This morning @AbiReader appeared on @bbc5live Wake up to Money. Listen again from 44.50 👉 ow.ly/o8AR50TXpnH

"You've got it wrong" is the message that farmers at risk of losing their livelihoods without APR are sending to the Government. @JimShannonMP and @Jeremy_Hunt represent the cross-party agreement on this threat facing British agriculture

Such a wicked tax on farmers. And ask why Labour has done it?Because that’s important. Imagine a farm in a family for generations only worth 1m in actual land and a few farm buildings. Not a big farm. Turn over just enough to create a very modest living with all family members chipping in. Long hours. No holidays. Often teenage children help for free to keep businesses viable. Learning the trade. Something unexpected or terrible happens, and inheritance tax is due. That family can’t pay it without selling. The family becomes homeless. Sells for cheaper than worth because tax has to be paid. The generations of knowledge are lost. A family is homeless & a large faceless conglomerate buys it up…. Bill Gates is now the biggest land owner of farmland in USA! Worrying times ahead..

@cattlefinishers @TheAHDB @AHDB_BeefLamb Been there it’s an eye opener

My take aways. #SIALParis2024 1. Universally the cow really isn't the problem it's the solution. 2. Invest, let the @TheAHDB take a £1 and turn it into £12. 3. World protein supply, it's a vital nutrient and we need to supply our share. 🇬🇧🐂🐑 @AHDB_BeefLamb

@FarmersWeekly all the to all hopefuls at the awards best night of the year #awards
