Got a smattering of quite tall groundsel in a field of wheat.is it worth doing anything or will anything do anything at this stage to take it out or not too worry about it
If you've been spraying su herbicides on cereals, then want to spray sugar beet. I use a tank cleaner such as All clear / tank cleaner
Usually with the rinsings I have a stubble field which I would opt to spray on.
If not, does All clear / tank cleaner have any effect spraying back onto...
Due to some last minute complications with the arable crop rotation, I am considering growing a short term ley on 14 acres. I know it is extremely variable, but what kind of baled silage yield could I expect from it if I drilled it now and cut it in say early July ? Looking at the Barrenborg...

Planning to drill winter wheat into this ex-Italian ryegrass, really reluctant to plough as the soil looks good however, as you can see, there is a large seed bank waiting to germinate. Is another pass with glyphosate enough to sort the problem? The other option is to wholecrop it but I’d prefer...
Where do people see the farm gate prices going from here now . Personally i think as a whole yields will be down across the board on most crops and of course there are lots of weather events that have / are effecting the big producing nations .
