Just wondered on the state of peoples farms, personally I strongly dislike a messy farm with junk and rubbish getting in the way but not everyone feels as strongly as me it seems unfortunately. Its improving but not its not as good as I would like. How about your farm?

700g fresh weight from pack, 400g cooked weight, nothing added other than seasoning. And it wasn’t burnt to a crisp either as has been known to happen here. Seems a big difference in weight, pan swimming in water with a fatty film on the surface, didn’t weigh the liquid off take. Experiment...

How many dd guys have gone cultivating? Out next door neighbours practices a full range of cultivating and has 95% crop cover after a hard winter we dd a majority of ours and a currently re drilling 50% .cultivating a fair bit as the top is solid from rain. Any one else feal like abandoning...

Looking at using a front mounted seed tank to blow seed to the back of a trailer cultivator (carrier). Has anyone done something like this before? The fact it’s trailed may cause some issues with the pivot point? Plan on using the same front tank with a combination drill and other stuff so would...

Read a snippet in the Farmers Weekly this week that seemed to imply that the new rules regarding urea and the 1st of April were a Red Tractor thing. Is it just for farm assurance or is it a defra thing, and if it`s a defra thing then what can they do if you do spread after the cut off date??

Do people find the levelling system reliable or does it give trouble (£££?) once they get to 10/15 years. Quite a few second hand combines about with it now.

Just wondering if there's any further information out yet as to what constitutes no till in the eyes of SFI? Is it a dts/mzuri/claydon direct into stubble? Or is it going to be lower disturbance tine or disc? Supposedly a claydon grain and fert meets the grant spec with the leading tine applying...

This 5yr old drill which is 4m wide is £70k. What on earth did it cost new? Has it lost nothing in depreciation? https://eastern.claas-dealer.co.uk/used-machinery/horsch-avatar-4-16-sd-hs-21331357-a-01

Currently running a Weaving GD 6m and I’m finding it difficult to keep the land level due to its impressive ability to not disturb the surface. Just starting in the 3rd year of spring drilling and the fields are definitely becoming corrugated due to wheelings etc. Would like to add a tine drill...

With the cut off date looming we have managed to spread most of the urea in store however we have a bit left that was destined for sp crops post emergence .We have a field of sp barley to go in and another of failed/drowned wheat to replace ,some has been ploughed and some cultivated earlier...

This isn't an attack on or criticism on Islam for being a 'religion' in the general sense, because to me as a rational atheist all religions are as absurd in that regard. But I'll be interested to know the views of others about the nature of Islam itself. Many religions have and have had...

if no till becomes a sfi option will we be able to claim twice a year ? for instance if doing over winter cover crop then a spring crop just a thought

Recently bought some tenanted land. On visiting it today, I found this ewe clamped over a lamb. She had no water. There was no-one on site. This looks completely unacceptable. Who better to ask than TFF.

So to get our heads around how useful this support offered by Rishi yesterday, who plans to take advantage of the FETF capital grants this year ...

Come on you farm engineers if you were to build one from scratch what features would be an absolute must. Would you choose discs or more of a knife like coulter? How would you go about designing a drill which would cope with a mixture of cropping from Cereal,rotational grass ,into cover crops...
