    Why the Hate for AD?

    Genuine Question.. Why is there so much hate for AD? Especially from within the Agri community? I'm involved in AD compliance and I do encounter quite a bit of hate about the whole AD industry. All AD plants within the next few years over here in N.I will be operating under a waste management...

    What does Wolds land mean?

    @DrWazzock mentioned how good Wolds land is. I know they have this land in Lincolnshire & Yorkshire. I would have thought steep, stony, shallow & prone to erosion. But are there different types of "Wolds". JSR farming grow potatoes & onions on Yorkshire wolds so that must be good land...

    Going forward with Oilseed Rape.

    OSR next year

    It’s become almost an addiction here to drill rape for an early start to harvest. The way our OSR looks this year we would of been better off fallowing for an early start. 30% was lost in the autumn which is now linseed, 20% has been put into barley or beans in the spring, 10% is in failed...

They say it's not an agreement to work with them and doesn't tie me to anything. But I'm inherently sceptical. Talking about £850/acre, but subject...
