Editor's View: SFI debacle was a grim day we all saw coming - Farmers Weekly (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What is one to say about the dispiriting events of this week relating to the Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI) fund, which was so unequally matched to the demand for it. In the brief hours in which it was open for applications, funding flooded out of the door at more than £10,000 a second, briefly outstripping the pace at which even the NHS budget is spent. And like all flash floods, it has left a trail of devastation in its wake – those who missed out. See also: £233m of SFI26 money all spent
Editor's View: Old era of food certainty is nearly over - Farmers Weekly (opens the original)
Read excerpt
“Today, we are undoubtedly in the era of self-sufficiency,” proclaimed Mike Anderson at the inaugural Conference on Food and National Security. When you hear those words from someone who has twice been a director-general within Defra and served as chief of staff to two heads of MI6, it makes you sit up a bit.

Editor's View: Stage set for pivotal September for farming - Farmers Weekly (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The runners are already assembling on the starting line of what is set to be this month’s biggest race in England.

Editor's View: Major gap in our animal health defences - Farmers Weekly (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It is the plot of a thousand Hollywood movies – the grizzled, old veteran being dragged back into action long after they are past their best to do one more job. But this time it’s not Clint Eastwood’s weary gunslinger in Unforgiven, it’s a ramshackle collection of government-owned laboratories in Surrey. Weybridge, the headquarters of the Animal and Plant Health Agency (Apha), is being pressed into action to support The Pirbright Institute – its overworked neighbour just half an hour down the ro
Second laboratory opens to speed up bluetongue testing - Farmers Weekly (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A second laboratory is being opened for bluetongue testing amid a growing backlog of tests that is slowing the pace of disease surveillance. The Animal and Plant Health Agency (Apha) said additional facilities at its Weybridge headquarters in Surrey would speed up the process of providing test results, but officials did not immediately respond to questions about how many additional tests a day it could deliver. Further testing capacity at the Moredun Research Institute in Midlothian is expected
