025 flat fans at 25cm spacing on a horsch. 140-220 l/ha for everything. Speed 13-16km/hr Struggle to put less than 140 on as the 025 is as small as i'm comfortable with (would constantly block otherwise) and much faster than 16k takes some slowing down and speeding up at the ends

Thinking of starting at the weekend or beginning of next week 3 days 1st wheats, 2 day 2nd wheats, 1-2 days barley. All DD after v shallow cult

Quite Feed expensive grain to pigs and lose money producing our own fertiliser. May be better to just accept lower yields and save the hassle and heartache of keeping pigs with an unreliable customer

They won't. They wouldn't understand the concept

I think we are seeing an inevitable trend of deliberate reduction of independent producers. Once the processors have totally cornered the system then they will promote a uk herd expansion similar to in the USA under their ownership and control. I could see a deliberate plant closure to speed up...

Rumour that abattoirs can’t sell uk product as foreign is cheaper. Ive heard one will reduce their kill again. Demand down across Europe as price conscious consumers eating less. Next 4-6 months will take more units out. But why would anyone carry on losing money like this when they could...

The family had a holdup as their baby daughter (now 3 months old) didnt have a passport so had to do extra paperwork. We are now both just waiting on...
