Looking to catch a favourable wind and sail the high arable seas is the new malting winter barley from Elsoms, Buccaneer. CPM hears about how this variety is setting a course to try and fly the flag for both the malting and feed markets...
What do you do, I have always been 120 keg/ha, but never make malting and so I think I should either up it to 150 kgs and go for yield. What do you find works and what sort of yields are you getting.
mine is planet and we seem to be around 6.5 t/ha
I was always told that February nitrogen flattens crops.
RB209 recommends nothing until the start of stem extension, and not before early April, unless it has low tiller numbers.
Yet everybody else seems to start chucking it on now and their crops look strong and green where as mine look crap...
NIAB TRIALS POINT TO EARLY WEED REMOVAL
As many growers seek to battle bigger grass weeds this spring, results of new NIAB trials, in partnership with Syngenta, have shown the essential importance of targeting ryegrass and wild oats early with Axial® Pro, to cut crop competition and deliver a...
Well I guess it’s time to start another annual thread about how peoples crops are looking at the start of the year.

Generally I’m pretty happy at present other than one but of rape that looks a bit thin in places thanks mainly to pheasants🙄

We’ve had a very late planting season with many crops a month and a half behind. My earlier planted wheat looked very good in the good growing conditions of late. I’ve been gone from the uk for over twenty years and have list touch with many things. My question is what product is better for...
Some of the leaves are showing this yellowing, 1st noticed it when I was spraying it with Jaunt on 28th May, it has got slightly worse since then. If it doesn't get any worse from now on it won't affect the yield much but does any one know what has caused it?
We have a big issue with grass weeds and it’s getting worse. We are ok if we have a big spread of crops but it simply just doesn’t pay due to poor yields of spring crops such as spring linseed, spring barley, spring beans spring wheat. We’ve also tried grass but without our own livestock we get...
It was the most beautiful evening today, and I'm just in from spraying. My evening was spent in my glass box, trundling up hill and down every 36 metres, admiring some spectacular views, at my favourite time of year.
But then I thought to myself actually, this is a bit rubbish. Might as well...
My Mascani winter oats are just coming into flag. They have had a total of 125kg nitrogen and .3 medax max at end tillering. We've had 25mm rain this last week and they are looking strong..Would it be to late to put another pgr on now?
Theoretically would moddus kill winter beans? Has anyone ever tried it? We have beans which are nearly 3ft tall already. Tempted to try a 10m strip and see.
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.
