    SFI 24 no till payment

    As far as I am concerned the box usually mentions refer to elsewhere on label for application rates/crop use which would link it to being a legal requirement.

    SFI 24 no till payment

    I/We are one of the 50,000. At the moment we are still getting some dregs of Bps, But going forward will put claim in, possibly not get much but some to make up shortfall. I do not think DEFRA understand our good land and often the wheat/cereal is the break crop. I will be absolutely gutted if...

    SFI 24 no till payment

    Basically I think they are still trying to work out what it means themselves. Here in Lincolnshire you could just lightly disc drill a crop after potatoes, onions or daffodil/tulips bulbs (especially if lifted dry in July/Aug/early Sept)and all the land would be lifted and soil moved from the...

    Spring bean's....

    On average you are right but we do get the odd good backend in 2011, 2018 in recent memory in both years the dust was still blowing on November 5th which on old person once said was when you wanted to be completed field work by. I admit the days are shorter for things like combinining at end...

    Relinquishing a Tenancy and Tax

    Gets more complicated as to who is tenant and getting all partners in partnership to agree possibly depends how many are in partnership or if siblings different outlooks depends upon children. Also sounds like a new landlord so possibly won't have correct info on whom to serve notices/...

    Relinquishing a Tenancy and Tax

    Was the partnership the tenant or one partner in the partnership? It is very complex and asking a few different professionals will get conflicting answers. Is the landlord just buying you out of the tenancy and then keeping the land or are they selling the land with vacant possession and you get...

    Tim O'Malley nationwide it's bad out there

    All they are really worried about is not making money/ having anything to sell. The weather in this country has been atrocious and the weather in the main importing countries has been bad to, so drastically reduced supply which means no/less product to make margin on and it effects their...

    Ahdb survey

    Or conversely give the trade more data to import earlier thus negating less substantial price rises.( The wet has effected a lot of western Europe, so it will have an impact when combines roll). Farmers who need cash flow and harvest movement possibly did better this last year so I find it...

    Potato Price Tracker

    Interesting thought. Only planting about same time as last year but compared to last year prices are higher now than at same time last year, which would mean they will be actively looking for imports. Importing large tonnage takes time and effort thou. Last year they mostly thought they could...

    Planning uplift

    Well according to some there is a large land bank with outline/full permission granted but years before being built. I bet you could be 10 years using it all up. So much rather be enforcement of existing permission or withdrawn, and you can bet some of this land bank has been stockpiled at...

    Beet 2024

    Under RB209 sugar beet needs: assuming 90t/ha crop tops left in field. 72kg P/ha 153kg K/ha N depends on following crop and rainfall. But if you can get good crops without, it certainly leaves you with a bigger bonus from growing the crop.

    KTwo gone bust?

    There is I believe some new build trailers and partially completed trailers and obviously consumable stock but no mention of owning property or lease whatsoever, so possibly a director might own the property in their own name, or it is just rented from another party.

    Beet 2024

    Do you apply P & k etc elsewhere in rotation or do you have naturally high levels, or are having a year or two holiday with high fert prices?

    Beet 2024

    What are the tanks for, do you apply liquid fert near the seed( to cut fert usage) or is it for pre-em?

    Are the farming press doing farmers any favours ?

    The thing that annoys myself when they speak about supposedly 'record prices' they seem to forget about inflation. The same could be said of any worker salary, house price etc. It is always a record price due to inflation and costs, next year will be higher again etc. Most costs rise pro rata...

    GFC was to go ahead - now not going ahead

    Which is why we have to be clever but if enough reply it will make the notice and perhaps have to do something. Iirc the CT review got bombarded with 2,000 + reviews from what they was expecting whilst ignored to a degree it has made them fearful of what to do next. They was meant to be doing...

    New limits to SFI.

    I believe those in charge think that if limit SFI, food will be grown on remainder. What they have not factored in is that a lot will be even more business astute may just say have voluntary payment free setaside with low prices and work part time elsewhere, e.g. for arable anyway have 30%...

    GFC was to go ahead - now not going ahead

    They are fighting for their lives. Brilliant, but probably would have been better to see if could have DM everybody to try to keep it out of RT eyes at the moment because despite vehemently disliking this site, you can well depend they read, report back and act accordingly.

    New toy day

    With auto lube you still have to check that grease is going to where it should, and if it isn't do some remedial work not ignore it altogether. But easier just to fill a little hopper and check elsewhere than climb all over machine.
