Anybody know much about the Farming Recovery Fund and how to get something between the £500 and £25K?
A lot of riverside flood plains have been ploughed up over the last 40 years
surely it's a gamble by the grower .lots of failed crops on higher ground from
the continual wet onslaught have suffered equally as bad.

Is it too windy to spray? :rolleyes:
Typically, first job needs to be MCPA on oats, before Topic goes into sprayer for wheat

I hear you, dealing with unpredictable weather can be really frustrating, especially when it affects your farming plans. It's tough when you finally see some progress with drying land, only to have rain set you back again. Hang in there! Hopefully, there'll be more consistent dry weather ahead so you can get back to your farming tasks without the constant delays.

Sounds like you've been through a wild weather ride today! It's tough dealing with such unpredictable conditions, especially when you're hoping for a break. Hopefully, the cold wind signals a shift toward drier weather for the coming days. Fingers crossed for a week of consistent dryness ahead! Good luck and hoping for the best weather. :)
