    Drainage, Methods, tips, tricks etc

    We are at the point now that we are needing to start some reasonable schemes instead of just patching as we go. we probably need to drain the whole of a 30 acre field and then there are other wet spots that just need a pipe ran through. There are a few options such as getting a contractor with...

    Long-term data/document storage

    Is there any real alternative to hard paper copies for long term document storage? This came up yesterday - I needed a document relating to a planning decision from 1985. After an hour or so it came to light in a folder entitled 'useful bits to be kept' in a filing cabinet in the cellar - thanks...

    And rightly so. Has can someone in such a position know so little and say “facts” like this. He hasn’t even had the decency to delete his tweet. In fact he has doubled down and re-tweeted it. I just hope the farmer of that field comes forward and says it was direct drilled. i know...

    New to DD and just wondering what people do with headlands/trafficked areas. I’m sure many will say that after a few seasons of DD soil will take it but I’m just starting and have beet in the rotation (which is going in 2 more years unless seed treatments come back). I’ll only DD 2nd wheat...

    Building resilience in heavy soils

    This autumn and last year have well and truly shown the value of soil structure, and highlighted in particular where problems exist. My farm is generally grade 3 heavy silty clay loam with flints, with a decent chunk at 55%- 60% forecast establishment rates, according to Soyl. It also has no...

    Ponds & Green slime/algae

    I have one pond that suffers badly from green slime/algae & is getting worse each year. Pond is groundwater filled i.e. no flow through it, roughly triangular & holds around 3000 cu.m at a guess. I can't believe this can be good for the water life, which is mainly sticklebacks, minnows & rudd...

    Piping a ditch

    I have an open ditch running alongside a hedge and close to a building. I would like to pipe it underground, it is a wet area and needs to pick up water as it goes. I would like to use a perforated pipe but am concerned that growing roots may get in and block it, what do others think?

    Boundary ditches

    How do people usually deal with cleaning boundary ditches out? I’ve got quite a few that have not been cleaned out in 20-30yrs, my ditch but their side of the hedge (and sometimes half buried in the hedge!) Lots of spoil to come out, and probably quite a bit of timber or roots which I can’t...
