According to Syngenta UK head of technical, David King, the combination of healthier grain prices but increased fertiliser costs over recent years has raised the financial stakes of growing crops – so any ‘mistakes’ that allow yield-robbing diseases to gain a foothold can pose a bigger crop...
Well I guess it’s time to start another annual thread about how peoples crops are looking at the start of the year.
All pics taken today.
Generally I’m pretty happy at present other than one but of rape that looks a bit thin in places thanks mainly to pheasants🙄

The risk from both diseases is relatively high following a milder than average winter and a significant area of crops sown early into good conditions last autumn, the firm’s technical development director, Dr David Ellerton says.
“Overall, there are plenty of good, lush, early-sown wheat crops...
Spraying opportunities are often limited in spring, so identifying fields to prioritise for treatment is key to effective disease control, according to Hutchinsons head of integrated crop management (ICM), Dave Howard.
“Omnia’s wheat disease risk forecasting model is a valuable tool to help do...
A new ADAS report indicates that the inclusion of folpet into wheat fungicide programmes consistently provides yield and margin benefits by improving septoria control.
The report, which was commissioned by ADAMA and Syngenta, evaluated the effect of adding the multi-site fungicide, folpet, to...
Who is doing one and what are you using .
Forecast after Wednesday is looking dry and warmer, so wondering if there’s much to be gained, other than piece of mind .
Has anyone does this. Both clean varieties. But one has a good sp weight and the other one poor. So should balance out. Could be a low spending blend of wheat on paper. Just thinking out loud.

College of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs (CAFRE) tillage advisors are confirming that most cereal crops in Northern Ireland are generally a little ahead of normal.
This is a direct result of the relatively mild spring, after a winter of good...
This stuff is not cheap. Fancy lid. And ......ffs a foil! Is this 2002? Even a £15 tub of stabilan is foil free? Is is this extra waste to comfort me that this is legitimate gear.

April is the month when winter barley crops develop the fastest and the demand for plant nutrition is at its highest.
Depending on the total amount of nitrogen (N) to be used, growers should make sure that they apply the last split before Growth Stage...
What are peoples thoughts on what to use for septoria control at t0 this year? Didn't do a t0 for septoria last year, only teb on yellow rust susceptible varieties, but had too much septoria in may/june for my liking.
What is there?
Folpet?
Can you get mancozeb this year?
Triazole for the...
Everyones stocks of CTL must surely have dwindled now. Plenty of forward growth on crops. What people starting to think about fungicide decisions going forward?
For me:
OSR - nothing probably. But its not overly lush
Winter Barley - Probably go for a 3 spray program where I usual go for...
Act early to stop yellow rust and Septoria
Early action will be key to preventing yellow rust and Septoria gaining a foothold in crops as we enter the main spring growing period, according to leading agronomy firm Hutchinsons.
The risk from both diseases is relatively high following a milder...
Donât drop guard against yellow rust and Septoria
Recent cold, dry weather may have reduced the immediate disease pressure in cereal crops, but growers cannot drop their guard against yellow rust and Septoria at the main spring fungicide timings, leading agronomy firm Hutchinsons warns...
