How’s your OSR looking now

I'm sure a serviced agromomist would sell you some boron for it.
It had 1.7l/ha (150g/l boron-ethanolamine) 7/2/2020. No sign of stalk splitting (but not much rapid growth due to the cold) so hopefully ok on B
It’s had 220kg N/ha and 100kg S/ha applied and rained in, but no P&K.
If it is Mg deficiency would bittersaltz be beneficial and how much?

Yup. A lot of thin single stalk bobbins.
IF it's Mg deficiency, and I'm not saying it is, you want approx. 5 kg/ha Epsom salts. I've got osr crops looking ragged by weeks of icy cold winds that don't look a lot different to yours, (apart from looking more backward!). Stick some in next time you're going through with another chemical.
At about £1.50ha it’s probably worth if even if it isn’t.
Your neighbours looks well infected with csfb it looks like they have written some off .

How can anything be worth it if it isn't? Tell you what send me £1.50 that will be worth it even if it isn't. Sounds good to me. I will give you my Nigerian bank account details.

Bit of a drive around this afternoon. Another two blocks of osr pulled up. Plenty that look well under a ton.

My agronomist was talking about uplift for my struggling rape, it's already had it once, and I fancy chucking the foliar potash in with it. I have never had such a
Sounds like mine, and going backwards every day
If it isn’t Mg deficiency.... poorly written I know ..... Don’t need much yield to pay for it and undetectable in the field.

9/10 OSR crops that arnt on the move are fudged! Bite the bullet and spray off and re-drill. Boron, mg, uplift WILL not make it grow if it’s full of larvae! That’s the sad truth!

Got loads of it just like your pictures or even worse round here. Bloody stuff just will not grow.
Noticed something similar last year, but not anything like as bad. So it’s definitely getting worse.
The only decent rape there is round here is on boys land.

That's bad, and has pretty much confirmed that osr is a dodo of a crop for us.

Same here, I have some in bud and some hardly out of the ground, it has no colour and virtually no biomass even the pigeons seem to have given up on it now
