Its also not enough to encourage farmers to adopt their businesses. It only benefits the ones already doing it and on kind land. Ill reiterate my previous comments...where is the scientific evidence that no-till is more sustainable...it certainly isnt here this year!
I drilled some NO Till into a couple of headlands with the ph combi drill, next too nothing has grown
Mind all the rain hasnt helped i'll admit that. £73 ha there having a laugh.
I'll carry on cultivating land as i see fit then

The only drill I have is a Simtech, which is obviously a direct drill. How would anyone know if I was to run over with a set of discs (or any other cultivator) before drilling with my direct drill? I'm not in England, so can't avail myself of this bounty btw. :banghead:
