Hello Y10!
The DVD we watched before half term was an excellent insight into how farms can continue to run in the future in a sustainable way. The reason I have set up this blog is to enable other people to hear about this way of farming. Its a kind of promotion of the documentary as this blog is searchable on google. I would like you all to blog the following:
1. Your thoughts on the DVD we watched, was it good? Which parts did you find particularly useful/interesting?
2. How can we let more farmers know about this type of farming? What methods could we use? e.g. have a stall at an agricultural fair, posters etc.
Remember to read everyone else's responses, make the blog flow like a conversation. That way, if you do your homework earlier you'll have less to read!!
Good Luck

"Wildlife film maker Rebecca Hosking investigates how to transform her family's farm in Devon into a low-energy farm for the future. Last year's high fuel prices were a wake-up call, and realising that food production in the UK is dependent on fossil fuel, particularly oil, Rebecca sets out to discover just how secure this oil supply is. Alarmed by the answers, she explores other ways of farming and learns that it is actually nature that holds the key to farming in a low-energy future." BBC
