Has anybody got a foolproof method for cleaning LED sprayer boom lights. Mine get a good coating of spray drift. The worst is pendimethalin. Nothing seems to shift it and yellow light doesn't illuminate the spray patterns like white light.
Hello,
I am looking for my first farm worker job to kickstart my career. Obviously, I have no farming experience but I'm willing to learn and graft. What kind of wage/salary could I expect to earn?
I’m about to launch a small rotational grazing trial this year.
Everything's set up and ready to roll, the only concern I have is the lack of shelter in some of the paddocks. The field is relatively flat and uniform (why it was chosen). Wouldn’t be an issue on days like today but when it’s 2...

Any uk scheme will already offer traceability through the passport so that is above imports already.

Now this really boils my pish
Vegans have bought a local house with ten acres of boggy scrub attached, and set up a "sanctuary".
They've very successfully raised money by "crowd funding" for fencing and materials.
Now they're looking for volunteers to look after the animals they've "saved"...
Just wondering how people get on lambing triplets outdoors?
We lamb our triplets and some singles for fostering indoors and everything else outdoors.
Thought I might try them outside this year and just lift any lambs for fostering once they’ve had their colostrum. Got about 150 triplets so I’m...
Hi All,
This has likely been discussed ad infinitum but here we go again as I can't seem to find a relaxant thread on the subject.
When to apply 20-10-10 to grassland now that T sum 200 is no longer published?
OK conventional wisdom states "March time" but is there anything more scientific out...
Hmmmm........WG doing a survey over the next few weeks on the above. In other words, why the f**k are small farmers still here after doing our very best to get rid of them for the last 40 years.
If they dare contact me, I'll say I'm still at it cos I like driving elderly Ford tractors. :) 🖕🖕🖕...
