Quite so, Limestone - it's a carbon copy of 2012, to date.

Fortunately, no two years ever the same.

:unsure:
2012 was wet all summer, with the potato and maize fields looking like the Somme .
Don't think it's looking that bad yet, is it.?
Rained all day here. Barley drilled last week, rolled and pre em sprayed. Can always turn sheep into it!

Not 2012 at all. Sure, low sunlight in June but a dry August. 2012 had a dry September here then the weaher really broke in early October. Lost half of this September to rain so far :facepalm:

Cannot believe all this talk of rain and wet ground. We are going to have to stop drilling here after only planting 25%as it is getting too dry for the pre em's to work.
