🙌 Thanks for speaking up about this @Liv_Boeree ! I definitely think once AI has been successfully combined with advanced robotics / humanoid robots us small farmers will be in a better position to compete

Super chuffed with our upland meadow wildflower biodiversity improvement efforts! It's taken almost a decade but looooook 😍 We had orchids too last year but I've not seen any this year so far... (sheepdog for scale/ cuteness)

Bird surveys all done for the micro wind turbine install! 💃Can't believe after years of saving and planning we are now so close to getting this turbine installed! It will make enough power for the whole farm and surplus for visitors cars and to sell back to the grid 😁

And those cows lived on a fell side all winter eating poor quality forage At super low cost - native breeds are awesome, I just wish I’d started with them when I was young - hassle is cost Ease is profit

New respect for the power of hiring on @indeed. Posted a Goat Yoga job less than 48 hours ago🐐A brilliant candidate found us within hours thanks to key word alerts they had set. My last full time hire found us through the same way - key word alerts - a brilliant feature!

Is it a good idea for the government to be making jobs? Surely that is best left to the people? The government should be more the referees than the players

I already knew business is better than aid for raising people out of poverty, but I had to learn that business doesn't exist in a vacuum. If there are absurd regulatory obstacles interfering with business, it becomes impossible for entrepreneurs to create jobs and prosperity.

Hey @duncan__c 👋 I run Cronkshaw Fold Farm and we've a pretty cool still unfolding story about switching from running on oil to 100% renewable power made & stored on site (with a little help via putting goats on zoom...📷) Might be a good tale for the @DER_Task_Force pod

I am LOVING the collections feature on @audibleuk where you can create folders of books - Great idea Audible! I've started organising mine by what year I read them, and unread ones are in the 2025 folder :D If you use Audible check it out it's ace!
