“The place just felt lifeless. It is a form of mental anguish.”

Sure, what else would you want other than your favourite cow on your 10th birthday cake?

Spotted this on a farm in Fermanagh yesterday. Made from an old galvanised sprayer. Holds 1200l. Farmer reckoned it cost him £300 all in. Used on an out farm with no water supply. Wish I was that innovative although still reckon my Sim bull might take it apart

"The I's have it". Amendment 1 has been agreed. The Climate Change legislation in NI will include a separate target for methane. A very important change for NI livestock farming

Patsy McGlone confirms that the SDLP will support Amendment No. 1 to the climate change bill which effectively sets a separate target for methane. Good news for livestock farmers in NI

With a climate change bill nearing completion at Stormont, it is vital that farmers understand what is being proposed, what will be expected, and the wider implications on the agri-food sector in NI. Join us on Wednesday at our NI Climate Change Summit in Cookstown.

Have read a few times now about people being "astonished" that the agri media have failed to pick up on the DAERA proposal to increase minimum claim size for area payments to 10ha. We are all useless obviously. Three examples of where it is mentioned below

Amendment from Sinn Fein and Green Party on changing the headline target from an "at least 82%" emissions cut to a "100%" cut is passed by MLAs, marking a huge blow for the NI farming lobby

So Minister Poots has confirmed farmers will get an extra 6.29% in their direct payments this year. Worth an average of £800 per farm. Good news as farmers battle rising input costs. First heard the rumour in the mart a month ago. Maybe I need to spend more time there 🤔
