Following the government's announcement today raising the thresholds for APR/BPR, NFU President Tom Bradshaw (@ProagriLtd) thanks the Labour and opposition MPs who have voiced the concerns of their farming constituents and lobbied for changes to APR/BPR proposals.

I accompanied the @NFUtweets President to his meeting with the PM and the Defra SOS. Today's change on IHT for farmers and family businesses more generally is in large part down to this man's steadfast leadership and staunch advocacy on behalf of his fellow farmers. Well done Tom

@CatSmithMP and @amcarmichaelMP asking some very direct questions of the PM. Starmer admits he knows some farmers are considering suicide because of his policy, he knows there are changes that could prevent this, but he is choosing not to change course. Words fail me.

A government review to tackle unfair practices in the combinable crops supply chain is a real opportunity to address the current imbalance of power and give arable farmers a stronger voice and fairer terms. Please respond to the consultation now. 👉 https://t.co/xPRUgfVZLT

Had upper spine surgery yesterday after slipping 2 discs back in Aug. Been a rough couple of months but home now- all went well. I have been saving up @Pxfarms since September as will be laid up for a week. He still hasn’t finished that bloody yard or got them headers away 🤷♂️😂

#HORSCHtogether Edward from Childerditch Farms 🇬🇧 has been relying on the Leeb LT for precise plant protection since 2018. His conclusion: tank size = efficiency! The new Leeb 9 LT with a larger tank therefore offers exciting prospects for him. https://t.co/g7hKxBH7IP

I appreciate it is a bit of a luxury but I don’t know where we would be without our “seed store” these days. Does wonders for my OCD
