To those who read this, I have just come from a meeting at the South of England Agricultural Society Showground with the committee of Eurolink. This online log or blog is to continue, it is to continue in shorter posts, but that will probably mean more postings that I hope will be more relevant to the agricultural worker, farmer or rural professional within us all.
So a couple of short postings, on the Saturday the 1st of October and Sunday the 2nd of October of 2011 from 9.00am to 5.00pm, the South of England Agricultural Society Showground presents The South of England Autumn Show and Game Fair. A chance to have a go at Clay Pigeon Shooting including High Gun and a Ladies High Gun, Fly Casting, Terrier Racing and Sunday has its own Team Shoot Challenge. There will be activities in the arena including birds of prey, bloodhounds and local packs of hounds. More details can be found here. Are there any other agricultural or rural activities that you think should be mentioned here, they cannot be advertised here, but their presence can be brought to the attention of the reading audience.
The other short post is about agricultural regulations - NetRegs (www.netregs.gov.uk) is a government sponsored site that helps all industries to easily find the regulations that control their industry. The pages for agriculture can be found here and there are clickable links to the left of the screen that give all agricultural guidance, EP (Environmental Permit) / PPC (Pollution Prevention and Control permit) guidance, Quick Start Checklist for Farmers (split easily into four countries) and an electronic learning tool that helps you to learn how to deal with farm waste. You can even sign up for a free monthly update from the Net Regs team, sign up here. So why am I mentioning this now, just to let you know that NetRegs is going to be absorbed into the Business Link website, information can be found here.
If you are reading this from another country, does your government have a similar service? Is it easy to find on the Internet?
