Increased straw prices this harvest mean many growers have chosen to bale rather than chop straw, but this has led to concerns over potential nutrient deficiencies and the need to replace them ahead of autumn drilling.

Some straw prices nearly reached £100/tonne in July, according to the British Hay and Straw Merchants’ Association, and there has been a strong demand from Ireland for straw as well. With good conditions throughout harvest in the south and midlands, growers were confident to swath straw for baling rather than incorporate it back into the soil.

However, Toby Ward at Origin Fertilisers says growers will be wary of later drilling this season and getting crops off to a strong start is paramount. “Reduced cropping areas and short straw heights have both contributed to the...

High-yielding winter wheat smashes 5 year farm average despite challenging growing season

Despite a double whammy of tough autumn establishment conditions and high Septoria disease pressure, Lincolnshire farmer Alex Jasinski was delighted with a first-time crop of Bamford that produced an average yield of 11.66t/ha with overall bushel weights of 79 kg/hl.

Ingoldsby based Alex, who grows 400ha of arable crops on a mix of soils ranging from heavy blue clay to limestone brash soils, drilled 22.5ha of Bamford on October 2nd last year alongside 2 other winter wheats, Dawsum and Skyscraper, successfully overcoming atrocious wet autumn weather.

Alex says” It was certainly a tough start to the season. I recall just about managing to get our pre-emergence spray on 2 days after we...
