Turning over our Winter Barley ground. ☹️ Ready for NUM 3 later in the year.

From today we have 14 days of dry weather forecast on the BBC website! Time will tell. 🤞

Not only the above but a vermin hotel. No end of hiding places for them. We are just starting to clear out our old store. 60 years or so in place, and fine when there was lots of labour on the farm. However it is all ladders and pits, and the machinery is starting to wear out with plenty of...

Looks like it has calmed down now, but 8mm since 5pm. ☹️

We are right under it now, Have lit the fire, bracing for a power cut! Still raining, not sure what our total will be after today!

16mm today, 30mm in the last 48 hrs! I am fed up with it, the cows are fed up with it!

We have applied for 2 things totalling more than £25000 worth of grant. Had an email asking for a bank statement to show funds, or proof of a loan. As said above we are not approved for the grant yet and months away from buying it. However sent in a copy of our bank statement, pretty healthy...

Hi, sorry I should have put something up earlier. These have been sold, subject to collection and payment. Thanks.

Thanks for the input. I will probably look for just a straw rake and try and use it on the smaller tractor. Can always go over with a set of 12m rolls afterwards.

Looking at getting a rake for this autumn, using the FETF grant. It looks like some of them come with discs on the front as an option. It will be working in front of a tined direct drill and as well as spreading out the residual straw I am interested in the fact that it may chop the straw up a...

It’s expected that a quarter of all British people will be vegetarian in 2025 (up from one in eight Britons today) This line makes me chuckle! Does she know that 2025 is next year? and a 65% increase in sales of plant-based products year-on-year, Only on the reduced item shelf. launch of our...

I look forward to a visit. I have someone coming out on Monday to cut a roadside hedge. Their trimmer broke and so could not do it this week! I will check that over the weekend a bird has not made a nest! :)

Possibly. I did inquire when we were first looking, but they did not offer a BP card. I think we have about 5 BP garages in an 8 mile radius. The only different garage in that radius is a Murco garage. Also our pricing will be very different to yours in Aberdeenshire.

125.07 with us for next week.

Best feeling. Pop my head in to the barn at 10pm and see the cow that has been down for 2 weeks standing up. Result.

Depends what brand station you have near you. We are surrounded by BP and so have a BP card. There maybe others that might be slightly cheaper, but there is no point going out of my way to fill up to save .5p!Last weeks price was 122.06

We have been using a card since just before Christmas. Average price from 7 weeks 119.20. All ex VAT for Diesel. Pretty much beats bulk buying prices. This is a BP card. Used to bulk buy and have a tank on the farm, but not using so much Diesel now so experimenting with a fuel card. Also we...

No experience of the Megant, but have got on very well with our KV TS drill. 10 years old or so, drilled 450 acres per year 6m 150Hp to pull. Have tried a bit of DD with it and had mixed results with it. It is not designed for it though. Always had good crops from it in a min till/plough...

No, normal smart meter
