Has anybody here sown vetches as companions with osr and has a comparison on flea beetle damage in osr with and without companion vetches ?? Terribly interesting....In my covers the brassicas are ok, it's the vetches that are really getting hammered. I wonder if they would be better to use next year.

we also on 2 differant farms. Somewhere I have even pictures of it before harvest.
whats the flea beetle damage on the vetch like compared to the OSR?I have no comparison as all companion cropped. We have sprayed once, damage was increasing with warm weather forecast. I will post a picture tomorrow. As York says this needs more research. York will be annoyed with me as I skimped on nutrition. It's on marginal land that is prone to flooding, rabbits, pigeons, slugs, waterlogging etc. So I did not want to spend too much until I knew I had a crop and so had to prioritise. Maybe a mistake. Live and learn.
Vetch is being hammered by something in cover crops. Not noticed too much damage in OSR crop. Will have another look. Maybe I could have done without a spray but did not want to walk into the field and find a crop of vetch and buckwheat only!whats the flea beetle damage on the vetch like compared to the OSR?
