Chris Biddle has been a member of the Institution since 2003 but has been involved in the industry for a great deal longer than that!
In recent years Chris was the Editor of the IAgrE Journal Landwards, which he modernised and steered with aplomb from 2008 until his retirement at the end of 2019.
This is a piece he sent us from the start of his journalistic career, an article from the Farm Implement and Machinery Review from February 1963, published from offices in The Strand, London at a cost of 2s 6d.
