...has given you 100% control?
There are plenty of dirty fields out there, but also some very clean ones. Is that cultural as well as chemical?
Interested to know others chemical inputs.

Let’s start a harvest 23 thread! So how far do we all think we are from starting? Winter barley rapidly ripening here early start is on the cards. First week of july maybe, rape just starting to lose its greenness also!
In the past all we had to communicate was phones and letters.
In this modern full.of tech world we have phones, email, text ,whatapp ,and the rest.
Press a button and instant communication.
And folk can't be arsed to even press a button. It's a rampant disease.
What's up with them ,how do...
I'm reluctantly growing second wheats again this autumn.
I test seed and try to avoid fungicidal seed dressings where possible. I was horrified to see the price of latitude but I'm not sure if I should really be using it? It would seem in a no-till situation and very early October drilling its...
Looking for ideas for a tillage system to fit in an existing frame want something compact that moves all the soil but only working an inch(ish) deep. Would be following a low disturbance flatlift. Has anyone much experience of the wavy discs similar to this
Anyone else seeing a big grass weed explosion with this wet weather? So depressing rampant ryegrass and blackgrass in fields that looked clean post Christmas.
Some sickish looking wheat had late Hatra/Atlantis, is there any recommended nutrient mix to try and perk it up and get it looking greener?
Asking for a friend ;)
I ask the above as I drive by some fields that have been direct drilled from 2012 autumn,and I have to say that this spring those fields look to be as waterlogged as much as they were pre 2012.
So although direct drilling may be increasing the organic matter of the top few inches, it looks to me...
Parting ways with our agronomist and the parent company which is a well known, supposedly well respected and reviewed farming/ management service company.
Long story short, lack of agronomist visits, agronomy done on timings rather than in field situation, non existent weed control this season...
Due to the lack of spraying weather starting to get behind with it . Still have some Atlantis type products to put on winter wheat then all the wheat will need T0 very soon. Agronomist saying leave the herbicides very soon and move on to the T0 s . Weather is driving me crazy two nice days then...
155mm here in March, so far.
Agronomy now facing an unfortunate combination of surface waterlogging and subsoil moisture deficiency, with current root death likely to restrict scarce moisture uptake later on.
Combining that with last autumn's much higher cost base and next harvest's lower...
Afternoon all with the weather not currently looking good wet and windy spraying will soon get behind been advised not to use Atlantis type products either side of a frost my question is would you dare to put a load on in the middle of the day if the weather was fit but there had been a slight...
I’m sure like many we’ve used luximo as pre em and now needing to spend more of the profits !!!! On a contact
Used in the past Atlantis -good whilst it worked
Broadway star- now no good here as we have black grass as well as Italian
Proverb- didn’t see much diff if any to Atlantis
Monolith -...
Not for the first time have I read of a direct drill comparison and found the best margins were obtained by quite a large percentage by a more conventional approach. ( This weeks FW )
Is it possible that DD and cover cropping can work and can be successful but if you are not bothered about being...

When grassweeds survive post-emergence herbicides, it’s often assumed that the spray hasn’t worked and resistance may be at play. But recent research shows that application matters just as much. CPM reports.
