As I write this early December, and having spent the morning with a spade,
digging channels into ditches to try and alleviate the water standing, it goes
to show how we have to keep an eye on everything and forecast for the
following year and prepare for what is around the corner.

Where does time go? Seems no time at all since
the last New Year, who would have anticipated
the year 2020 and all it held for us.
These are strange times and with
people having to self isolate for
a large period of time, it will have
been a demanding year for all
the wrong reasons.
Looking back at the year, I
suppose that is one advantage
of being a farmer, at least we
can get out and about round the
fields and keep an experienced
eye on what is going on, or not as the case may be. At the moment the fields
are not looking at their best.

It was announced on TV that the weather pattern as we used to know it,
sunny summers and snow every winter will change drastically by the end
of the century unless we change our carbon footprint and snow will likely
disappear. It is quite difficult farming in today’s climate, trying to predict
the various weather patterns and what is the best crop to go with for
the following season, I cannot imagine what it will be like if or when the
conditions change and the crops we plant change to suit the climate. As
I look forward I do feel for the youngsters in our industry starting out on a
farming career now.
Many years ago we used
to have proper weather
patterns and seasons you
could rely on, rain when you
needed it, and sunshine
when we needed that. Now
hardly two days are the same
unless of course you mean
rain. I have NEVER in my life
seen land so wet and that is one reason why in these parts, last harvest was
the worst on record. With the changes that are going to be imposed prompts
me to look back and say how farming has always been a pleasure, yes, it
has its moments as we have seen in the last few years with the weather, but
with changes afoot there is going to be even more red tape in the future.
Decisions being made about what we can and cannot do and how we
should be concentrating on planting lots of trees and flowers and producing
everything without any nasty fertiliser or those terrible sprays which poison
everything and so on.
So, unless people alter the way they eat or behave generally, life is going to
be more than interesting. Perhaps in the future, I wonder if we will have vast
underground caves producing lettuce and other salads, perhaps a reduction
in the amount of meat that we eat. I think we all know that to lead a healthy
life, we need a balanced diet that comes from farming products and even
some fish is farmed to-day to meet demands. Maintaining a healthy diet,
ensuring good quality crops and reducing waste will benefit everyone, but
it's working together to achieve these objectives which is key. On that note,
HAPPY NEW YEAR and do think about where your food comes from and the
country yokels who produce it!
