Because it's the benchmark and everything else is better, or so they say

yep, and even I was lured into" their " thinking but sat here now wish we had a couple of fields the benefits abound, early to harvest not only spreading load but this year will catch an early market, relatively cheap to grow, could even put some of the yellow weed in on time behind it, . ah well too late nowBecause it's the benchmark and everything else is better, or so they say

We just need to persuade a plant breeder to keep breeding it. Got some Parkin in, it looks ok combine will decide you good it is

and now weve drifted into whats in name , parkin horrible ginger flavoured hard sponge just cant bring myself to like the idea of trying it as a crop whereas grafton is all graft ,works hard , which possibly explains subliminally why gravity is not as popular as skyscraper but its the better performing variety here and despite its name hasnt gone down this last couple of years along with gleam that shines brightly as against skyfall which engenders a doomsday scenario,

Is Grafton not still available from any of the merchants, I seem to remember one of the seed companies saying at the last cerals even they could still get seed.
@carbonfibre farmer is it Grafton that you grow for seed or another oldie?
