NEW DEFRA stats just out.

Show that in 2023/24 cereal farm incomes fell by 73%

On average cereal farms made a £26k loss on their crops, only earning an income due to direct govt subsidy & non-farming activity. Even so, 1/3 of all cereals farms made a loss despite other income.

Gives us this day, our daily bread 🌾 🍞

An unusual pause in harvest activity today, as the wheat that's left isn't ready.

Partly because it was sown so late, because of all the 🌧️

That also means yields are very, very poor 🥺🍽️

It's harvest time on the farm, and tentatively dipping my toe into this new blue world...
