FARMERS 👩🌾
We’ve a lot to be #proud of in 🇬🇧 - but we can #aspire to #better.
More productive. More tech-savvy. More collaborative. More environmentally proactive.
Change is coming. We have to embrace it & lead the #change. Consumers respect us - that’s a big asset ✅

With #NetZero we have to step up. It will be difficult; hard decisions will have to be made. But we must show #leadership.
We can’t complain about the consequences of #ClimateChange if we don’t play our part.
And only Ag can act as a carbon sink 💨 🌱

CONSUMERS 👨👩👦👦
You have the real power & you must recognise your own #value.
#Aspire to the best - on food #safety, #quality, #welfare & #sustainability.
Don’t be fobbed off with the environmentally destructive dregs of the 🌎 food system. Demand better for your families.

Siren politicians will say the biggest benefit of #Brexit is ‘cheaper food’.
Perhaps. But at what cost? The cheapest food in the 🌎 is produced in the ashes of the Amazon 🔥 or via misuse of antibiotics 🦠
Don’t accept their faux paternalism. Demand 🇬🇧

You carry the privilege of #leadership - so #aspire to lead with #integrity.
This is your chance to help build a genuinely #sustainable food & farming system which could be the envy of the 🌍
Don’t squander that chance in petty politicking.

Regardless of our domestic #standards, you know that undercutting them with food it would be #illegal to produce here in FTAs would devastate 🇬🇧 farming.
All our aspirations would be for nothing.
Do not be complicit in this. #Serve to #lead.

Please, just report the #facts.
🇬🇧 agriculture is 🌍 leading in many respects, has ambitions to improve, and is vital to our #sustainable future.
You are the prism through which most people see farming. Don’t distort our positive message to sell copy 🗞

A truly #sustainable 🇬🇧 food & farming system ultimately comes down to #aspiration.
We must aspire to prioritise our #health, the quality of our #food & wellbeing of our #environment, then close the gap between aspiration & reality.
We can do this.
