The last 6 years demonstrate that we must do more to build resilience into farming & our food supply. Farmers currently carry all the risk & the status quo can’t hold; my latest piece for @FarmersWeekly.
@WTWales welcomes announcement from Welsh Gov today to set up a Ministerial Round Table with all stakeholders to discuss next steps with the Sustainable Farming Scheme. We need a Scheme that delivers for farming but also for climate, nature and the people of Wales @huw4ogmore

@vickihird @10DowningStreet I hope you are invited, and they take a systemic approach and look at food poverty, procurement, agroecology, sustainable diets and talk about food security as more that just produce more, and maybe include a land use plan and trade.
So another @10DowningStreet Farm to Fork summit on 14 May. will i get an invite? 🤔 A new Food Security Index will be detailed-will it incl farm system resilience-soil, pollinators etc & diets, waste? all core to FS Fair supply chains? A coherent plan for edible horiculture?

People have been through more than anyone could imagine over the last 6 months. They are very scared of what tomorrow brings. They are very scared if more military action will happen. Scared if they'll be displaced again. Scared of the nights. There is no safety in #Gaza

@GeorgeMonbiot @NicolaCutcher @blackgull @vickihird @SusFoodTrust @suepritch @HenryDimbleby OK, so 'less and better' meat won't be possible in the context of massive social inequity fuelled by neoliberal economics (I agree), but isn't that true of consumption in general? (ie. surely the problem is inequity, not 'less and better'?)
@GeorgeMonbiot @NicolaCutcher @blackgull @vickihird @SusFoodTrust @suepritch @HenryDimbleby Fair challenge. But is that true of everything we're trying to reduce consumption of (flying, fashion, etc) or do you think there's something unique to meat / animal foods that makes an equitable shift especially difficult?
More on food industry lobbying in this week’s @BBCFoodProg Amazing story on @GeorgeOsborne at @hmtreasury crafting the fizzy drinks tax in secret to keep the industry at bay. bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
The new last chapter in the paperback is worth buying the book for again. A fascinating and absolutely coruscating account of the backlash from BIG FOOD, including the contract you have to sign if you are a scientist paid to advise them.

@NicolaCutcher @Rob_Percival_ @blackgull @vickihird @SusFoodTrust @GeorgeMonbiot @HenryDimbleby We had a go with @IDDRI_English back in 2020 using a methodology consistent with their Europe-wide Ten Years for Agroecology research.

A quirk of geography means that the UK is blessed with most of the world’s chalk stream. Where are the chalk streams? A brilliant article from @NationalGeoRP shows us exactly. We have spent the last 200 years taming and abusing them. And they are in a dire state. Now is the time…

One hedge - so much wildlife - small features in our homes, gardens, infrastructure & green spaces, cumulatively, make a huge impact on biodiversity.
It's May and the Beech leaves on our south-facing garden hedgerow are developing. They attract lots of invertebrates that visit to warm-up. Here's a selection from the last couple of days. #Biodiversity #Bonanza
@CathHodsman @KateFordJump @vickihird Most likely cardinal Pyrochroa coccinea. Too 'rectangular' for lily beetle. The sheen to the wing cases closeup is magnificent .
