Morning all! With an SFI start date of Jan 1st, do my declared IPM4 insecticide-free parcels actually now fall over 2 cropping years i.e. I am now unable to apply insecticide on that parcel for the 12 months? Or does it only apply to the crop in the ground on the agreement start / anniversary...

One of the great takeaways from Agritechnica last year, was the rapid move towards minimising soil disturbance in preparing ground for the next crop.
This an approach echoed by Weaving Machinery, which had a significant presence at LAMMA.
There is a...

we havnt had a good ploughing vrs DD dust up for awhile :sneaky:it all seems dominated by the politics of rt nfu et al :rolleyes:
He didn't once mention the farmer's supply chain, that all the risk is placed on farmers, without any compensation. He seems to think the NFU is solely an arm of DEFRA!

BASIS has launched a new hedgerow management course as part of its latest educational initiative.

Hi there!
I am the co-founder of a new startup in Devon that aims to help farmers diversify their income and tackle climate change by planting trees.
I am doing some research to understand whether this is something that farmers are interested in and specifically how we could make things...
Farmers worldwide are being squeezed between monopoly suppliers and monopoly buyers. With farmers fragmented, they have to be "price takers".
With worldwide governments content to allow food producers to "go hang", food shortages are becoming ever more commonplace. Be it wheat in Africa, rice in...
Worth a watch - I watched part one tonight and it focused on Shirebrook pit & village and the division in the community at the time
Some parallels from 20th Century mining, with farming in the 21st Century
Break the dominance of the miners and then close the pits (despite those pits sitting on...
The variable start date lottery!
It looks relatively simple to meet the aims of NUM3 (legume fallow) by sowing in the spring and keeping until the end of August.
If my field is currently in wheat and my SFI agreement starts 1st March then I could presumably sow the NUM3 seed mix after harvest...
So far we have been rather rudimentary in our clover establishment, light cultivation twice with Kuhn prolander on stubble, then out with quad and spinner, roll it in... we get mixed results and it could be better some years. Be good to get a better seed to soil contact. I don't much want to...
After a meeting with an advisor it reads as though you could establish AHL2 winter bird feed after harvest, it then has to be in place for the winter months, nov, dec, jan and feb. After this could you then follow with a spring crop? If you were to do this and add the no insecticide payment you...

Normal nonsense from OSR,
• drilled 45ac nothing came of it.
• Ploughed some land before Lucerne establishment and seed that we buried about 7 years ago is thriving can't kill the bloody stuff.
If I rolled it before a decent frost would it check it or kill it or merely act as pruning and give...
