Lovely job, rip up with min till cultivator and drill your wheat. Put roundup in with pre-em, job done.

rough guess were thinking about 18 so far but the last piece is the heaviest so hopefully nudge 20

You wouldn't be impressed with that level of weed in the stubble if you were intending to min-till wheat into the field soon after. Conditions at the moment are absolutely fantastic for min-till wheat behind maize, just a sniff early really.

Claydon is licking it's lips at these conditions

I've had some cracking crops behind maize with the claydon. Great drills.

Got first bit in ours drilled later is still a fortnight away, good crop

AD boys were on the A303 past Illminster last night. All Fendts and big trailers, looked a smart crew. Not sure I would be brave enough to take a tri-axle silage trailer down that road full up, even at night...

No problem, just play the Covid card.

Sons been helping with maize, some of that was over the top of the cab of the forager!

height doesn't reflect quality, only quantity, but, it's really nice to see a 'hellava crop, some of ours, drilled 28th may, behind hybrid rye, (18ton/acre) is 12 feet high, say 15 ton/acre, + 18 ton h/rye, hellava heap of silage/acre !!!!!
