Times are tough, things are changing. Now, more than ever, farming needs to come together. Farming needs a team on it's side, fighting it's corner.
Judge me on that. @AHDB_Cereals

Enroute back to Scotland absolutely shattered after a fanstastic few days with the OECD and @scotent Totally parched for a decent cup of tea. The French might have the wine, but the Tea resides with Britain!

The Ogallala aquifer is the largest underground water source in North America, giving life to ~ 30% of all crop and animal production in the US
The aquiferโs water supply has dropped by as much as 75% and is on pace to dry up in the next 70 years.

"We're seeing a very rapid turnover."
The first new vet school in Scotland in 150 years could be a solution to a staffing crisis in the sector, according to @SRUC. The facility in Aberdeen opens in September.
@theRCVS has published an action plan to try to tackle the problem.
