I've done some initial analysis of the new ELM rates🧵
If in GS6 you are delighted.... a £464 uplift
If in GS2/GS5 disappointed as no change
Defra figures show until 2022 ~300,000 ha in GS2 & GS5, just 26,000 ha in GS6

Waiting @oxfordfarming for @DefraGovUK announcements on ELM especially for the uplands and moorlands
Will I need to rewrite my speech for this evening’s debate or not?
Food and Nature can and do work together but we can’t expect public goods on the cheap @herdyshepherd1

The Dartmoor Review is out. Substantial changes are recommended in how @NaturalEngland approach agri-environment delivery on SSSIs.
This has ramifications across all upland/marginal areas of England where multiple outcomes incl nature recovery is sought

It is good that @NaturalEngland recognises the need to change how they work with the farming community to improve outcomes for nature, climate, businesses and people.
I hope this refreshed approach will be implemented across England.

Dartmoor is a unique place that blends nature and a delicate ecosystem with generations of farming practices.
We welcome the Independent Review of Protected Site Management on #Dartmoor and will now review the recommendations.

A good opportunity to discuss the issues facing commons with NFU leaders, with the decline of BPS and slow pace of ELM roll out high on the agenda.

Today I joined @lambswick visiting the Commoners of the New Forest and see first hand the unique ecology that grazing cattle are part of. So often I’m told cattle are the problem, here they are an amazing solution.

A thought provoking day discussing the lack of progress towards a landscape scale scheme for the #NewForest. Short term pain and long term uncertainty.

Thanks to our staff and other New Forest organisations, we’ve cleared up truckloads of rubbish left behind by travellers and made the area safe for forest animals. The staff time and cost of specialist waste removal diverts Forestry England’s limited resources. #CareForTheForest

A screenshot from the Wild New Forest Facebook page. Key sentence: the enormity of the importance of the New Forest SSSI cannot be underestimated. Commoning underpins the ecology of the New Forest. It is a model that many lowland commons should be looking to replicate.

European Honey Buzzard appears to have had a relatively productive breeding season in southern England, with good numbers recorded in the New Forest, Hampshire: bit.ly/47GSwJb
