Are feral pigs any good to eat? I keep reading nightmare stories about trichinosis and brucellosis.

If his farm is in the UK, they have their own regulations. They are not part of the EU or the EEA.

Rutabaga require a relatively long season. And they don't really benefit from tall companions like Milo blocking sunlight. I would plant the sugar beets and rutabaga together and then plant the peas and Milo together, maybe as a border to the beets and rutabaga plot. In the fall or late...
