Really just want to get harvest over with now. Everything that’s left is drought damaged. Clear it and start again. It always looks better browned over here.
last year osr 0.8tac, sb 1.6tac and ww 2.9tac . know how you feel. Not sure on this year so far, will not be record but hopefully nearer average ( not as high as Eng pub average!)Really just want to get harvest over with now.

Hi Tesla....what moisture today?! My earliest field (Firefly, drilled 13/10/21) has gone from 21% last Thursday to 15% y'day evening. Waiting to see if we get forecasted showers this afternoon, and if not start tomorrow.Just starting to neck over. Should be ready in a fortnight.
Unsure. Gone to the dentist. Neighbour who cuts my wheat reckons his at the end of the week so mine early next.Hi Tesla....what moisture today?!

Same here, DrWazzock - this is quite my most unsatisfactory harvest ever since 1976.Really just want to get harvest over with now. Everything that’s left is drought damaged. Clear it and start again.
I seem to think ive heard that quote from you during previous harvests.Really just want to get harvest over with now. Everything that’s left is drought damaged. Clear it and start again. It always looks better browned over here.
That's pretty crazy.This should probably be in the WTF thread, but cutting un- dessicated spring linseed today.

Wheat isn't fit, it isn't even sunny, in fact it's spitting with rain, and it's still threshing beautifully. And it's 25th July. And we are a cold, wet late farm (by local standards at least).
Bonkers.
For your own useInitial moisture test, 18.5. Happy with that.
Starting WB today. Co Antrim NI. Burned off Monday week ago. Heads broken, but not biting hard. Will be lucky if moisture starts with a 1. Weather turning on Friday night, and my combine guy is leaving the area if I don't go today.
