Been doing loads of interview lately and the questioning I get is really revealing

I’m repeatedly challenged whether I’m a real farmer because real farmers don’t you know, give a damn about nature

It’s like some in the media have swallowed the industrial farming propaganda
There is now an idea that you are only a proper farmer if you are really big place, have loads of machinery, and exclude@nature from your farm to be ‘efficient’ and ‘productive’

What a load of BS

There are loads of kinds of farmers with loads of different ways of thinking
The logic is circular and daft

All farmers are assholes

If you aren’t an asshole you can’t be a farmer

Oh you aren’t an asshole, so you are not a farmer

All farmers are assholes
