We have a field that was due to be drilled with beans this spring so in the backend we drilled a strip 21m wide diagonally across it with 30kg/ha of oats as a cheap cover experiment. Over the winter we had a bit of a shuffle around with our cropping so this field is now drilled with spring...
nearly may and yet to use a fungicide, crops spotless clean
cold, dry - could this be the first year we don’t use this group of chemicals at all ?
rain could change things yet but it will need to be significant now to rebalance smd’s
anyone else not applied a fungicide to wheat or barley...
Hi,
Some of my winter beans haven't weathered the winter very well and I've got a few bare spots appeared. I was thinking of ripping up some of it the other day, but now they improved a bit and with the dry weather I am worried that putting the linseed in might end up leaving me with nothing...
Have fields going into spring linseed next year and want a cover crop over the winter. Have some millet seed and wondered how this would do through the winter, being planted in August and the linseed drilled in March/April. Thought about mixing it with some OSR seed we have left over ir even...

Im considering a winter cover of frost intolerant species. Likely to be buckwheat, phacelia, linseed etc
The idea is to provide cover into winter but leave the field clear for spring drilling without the need for destruction. I find it essential on heavy clays to get the land to dry out ready...
I have been burning OSR straw in my Farm 2000 boiler for years now as loose baled mini hestons. However, no one around here can grow OSR anymore so I was just wondering what experience people have with burning bean straw and how it compares? Any tips on how it should be baled and how easily...
Have some of the above to sow
Can use 90% cereal, so we are using oats seeing as we have some.
What rate are people sowing the oats
And do you mix the other seeds with the oats to sow or sow seperate.
Cheers

So we’ve only got Defy - see attached, but having applied this in the autumn we’ve now got ryegrass come back through so we must be resistant to that as well.
Tried ploughing and it doesn’t work.
Tried No-Till and that doesn’t work.
Tried spring crops and they aren’t working.
Tried maize and it...
