Personally we have historical ryegrass and blackgrass in varying quantities. Desnsity and difficulty seems to change each year !!! Used luximo last season and not that much difference… Just looking for thoughts on a standard program.

Morning Presumably most are still planning on planting wheat in the next month or so. With current prices and profitability what’s everyone’s thoughts on pre em choices and rates ? cheers

Got my first samples back of group 2s today Extase/siskin 12.1 % 287 hag 79 kg moisture 14.3 (after drier) been offered £23 premium on August feed wheat but I’ll leave this first 300 t in a shed.

Early drilled early varieties-simples We’ve cut some Extase and Siskin.Just ready but ready and now in shed dried. Good yields at 17% but the stuff I looked at last night before rain was due thinking I could grab a bit more was 22% and now looking ‘washed’ to say the least

Yes I think it has to be completely naturally ready. So I presume dried naturally to a state to shed then get wet enough to create germination. Some varieties will do this quicker than others ! Don’t think we are there yet here 🤞 Does glyphosate maybe help ?

What sort of price do they cost ? Thanks

Usually do but some wasn’t ready

Hi We made some lovely June hay like everyone else I presume but left half our crop to bulk up as it’s old tired grass!! Who else has hay still to cut with the weather forecast for the next 2 weeks ?

Sell it and buy something cheaper and use the difference Don’t get too deep or you will regret it. Nothing wrong with a lesser brand or an older model

Still not a drop of rain here !

Are most on here carrying on with t3 in these conditions/temperatures? Everything looks pretty clean here 🤔

Exactly Pension fund building? Can’t remember the last time we did on ears …

On a different note is anyone adding insecticides? For the first season in many I have been recommended 0.1 Kungfu 🤔

Hi All, For those who use an agronomist to help with work load who’s got a rec for T3? Its very dry and wheat of our sensible varieties here very clean (Siskin /Extase etc) Is teb/prochloraz the general go to in this rusty weather?Will it be needed? For those that prescribe for themselves...
