    Skyfall - How late dare you sow?

    Drilled Skyfall in 2020 on 24th March. 50 kg of Gravity in the bottom of the drill before the seed went in. Where the bit of Geavity was drilled, not a single head, 60% of the Skyfall went to head, yielded about 4t/ha. Wouldn’t bother drilling it now if I were you.

    Grain conveyor over a footpath

    I have a footpath running through the yard between the drier and a flat floor grainstore. It would be handy to run a conveyor along the roof of this shed to load it straight from the drier if needed. It will mean the conveyor crossing the footpath albeit 6m in the air. Is there any legislation...

    Reduction in Combinable Crops Output as a Result of SFI

    Break crops will take a hit - personally 5% of loss making areas put into Pollen and Nectar mix (Awkward Corners, North Side of Woods etc) and 10% down to AHL2. Reduction in output won’t be down by 15% though as more unproductive areas taken out.

    Charging for precision farming data?

    I never really saw the true value of my own data until I started using Omnia. The benefit of storing it all on one platform which has a massive capability such being able to overlay different data sets to manipulate variable rate drilling maps, or inputting variable costs and machinery...

    Champion winter wheat

    It Lodged a bit, where as the Dawsum and Insitor in the same field didn’t, however PGR program last year was lighter than usual due to the dry start and stressed crops. 0.1 Moddus at T0 followed by 0.1 + 1.0 Cqt at T1 I’ll plan on going stronger than other varieties this year.
