Main farm is tenanted, AHA, and landlord is happy for me to stick a building up. This would be the obvious place. Though I may prefer...

    Diatomaceous earth- natural silicon

    Is it bad for beneficial insects? I’m trying it for the first time this year on brassicas against flea beetle, I’m happy with the theory behind it but now the agronomist is suggesting it’s actually harmful to beneficials in the same way as it is used as a grain store insecticide. Is he right or...

    Even I'm shocked by 50's farming

    Great clips of 1950's farming. Parents talked about similar but I thought it was just them who were behind. Amusing shots of the spraying, no gloves, no mask, no cab, spraying herbicide with the stock in the field & the very optimistic narrator. In that period machines must have been obsolite...

    Weatherproofing concrete walls

    Tend to get damp ingress through the walls in our grain store especially through any joins. Causes the grain against the wall to get damp and a bit mouldy. Is there a product that I can paint on the exterior of the wall to make it waterproof?

    Moving an existing roof mounted PV array to a new roof top.

The new build would have an effect...

    Best £50 I have spent on a machine

    Got this at LIDL last year. I have used it for sweeping thorns off road after hedge cutting. Blowing dust and chaff off the combine. Now using it for cleaning out grain dryer and grain store. Blowing 20 years of crap off the baler. Can any of you do a better bargain?
