A great day with @NaturalEngland colleagues learning about Maximum Sustainable Output (MSO) on a lovely historic farm in Northumberland.

The ideas are in this book….

Delighted to be welcoming @Nethergill as part of @monitorfarms here in 2wks to discuss 'balancing the sweetspot between output & profit'. It's a very different way to evaluate the business and a goal for the future.
Everyone welcome!

I’m an advocate and practitioner of ‘less is more’ developed by @Nethergill but that is no excuse for paying upland farmers less than lowland livestock farmers for nature, carbon, access. Lowland livestock farmers make equally poor financial decisions failing to optimise inputs
