Midlands Farmers

Midlands Farmers The group is growing rapidly and is working together to educate others about the agricultural industry and is providing support and help for the sector.

We stand strong with farmers, their families, and the countryside - supporting rural life, protecting the land and keeping farming alive for future generations. Midlands Farmers, a group based in Melton Mowbray, has been brought together by the punitive Labour budget, which is threatening agriculture and food production.

Why can’t they just sell meat without any additives! 🤢

The government's decision to increase fertiliser tax is a misguided policy that will worsen food inflation and make everyday groceries even less affordable.

Who’s been today?

🌾 Crowds flocked to Diddly Squat as Cereals Event 2026 got underway today!

While Jeremy Clarkson and the Clarkson's Farm cast drew plenty of attention, one of the key talking points was fertiliser security, with the NFU warning UK farmers remain heavily exposed to global supply shocks as tensions in the Middle East continue.

New crop varieties, precision farming technology and field-scale trials were also among the attractions on day one.

If you are at Cereals this week, what has been the standout so far?

Are the Green Party correct?

🥕 Green Party leader Zack Polanski has accused supermarkets of driving an unhealthy food system, arguing that vegetables sold for pennies come at a cost somewhere in the supply chain.

He said tougher supermarket regulation was needed, claiming farmers, workers and consumers were all being squeezed.

"It cannot go on as it is," he said.

Would you trust the Greens to deliver for farmers?

What do we think of the critics reviews?

What do we think of the critics reviews?

🗣️ "To the Telegraph critic, I did not see much slipping on cow muck. Just a really good portrayal of how British farms are trying to stay in the green."

The first four episodes of Clarkson's Farm season five are now live on Amazon Prime. 📺

After an exclusive preview, FG's Emily Ashworth has given the new series 4.5 stars, calling it "the most honest form of communication farming has to the wider public."

We find this extremely upsetting, we’ve opened up our farm to everyone. We don’t charge for entry and then to discover some has ‘borrowed’ one of our lovely old milk churns just isn’t right.
We would very much like it back, we know it’s a long shot but if you’re reading this and you have a conscience please return it, just leave it by the gate no questions asked. Farmer doesn’t want to spend ages going through the cctv looking for the culprit.
