We started FieldworkBookClub to read books about food, farming and the countryside three years ago and loads of people join in.

3 new people last night respectively from Devon, West Yorkshire and Washington State USA. It’s random (and fun!)

Proper interesting discussion in long form on ⁦Farming Today⁩ this morning with ⁦Michael Kavanagh⁩ and others. So refreshing to have a longer, less sound-bite focussed and too often charged debate on these issues. Worth a listen! bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…

I’m not making a political point, and you’re quite right. But the challenges are so great it would be interesting to think of you had all the best minds on this - who would they be? (Political or otherwise)

The US has had 2 secretaries of state for agriculture in 15 years. In the same time period the UK has had 11.

If you assembled a fictional cabinet that just dealt with farming, food and climate issues, and included both experts and politicians, who would be in it and why?

Agriculture is the finest, most exciting, most interesting and most relevant industry for the future to be involved in.

That’s what I think anyway. What about you? And why?

Promoted on LinkedIn today and yes I clicked on it and yes it says ‘Head of R&D with a focus on cake (Mr Kipling)’ and doesn’t that sound like a marvellous job?

Packed the kids off with a quid for non- uniform day then read the headline on potential cuts to IHT, then calculated that (roughly) if government gave 1% of current IHT receipts to children’s charities, this would be almost double the amount raised by Children in Need.
