Given the atrocious conditions we've had who's planting, is acreage going to be significantly down on last year?

very very small scale growing, talking less than an hectare. We put some in 2 or 3 weeks ago but hope to get some more in this coming weekend.

Where’s the seed coming from for this “more”?

Haven’t seen a planter going yet, but have seen a few harvesters going locally. Most farms are getting close to finishing sowing barley and will get into potatoes next week.
I started planting on the 2nd of may last year so similar this year.
