With apologies to those struggling to get their first N on
My wheat got 50gk N+S03 3 weeks ago next Tuesday.
Walking round with the agronomist yesterday and we would like to get some BWS on to tackle some particularly nasty brome. The dilemna being, do I top the N up first or herbicide.
My gut...

I have a lot of groundsel come through my autumn herbicide in winter wheat.
Should I be thinking about controlling now or waiting until early spring when warmer?
I was thinking either lector (straight florasulam) or cameo (tribenuron) would anyone have any suggestions which may work best...

Due to the lack of spraying weather starting to get behind with it . Still have some Atlantis type products to put on winter wheat then all the wheat will need T0 very soon. Agronomist saying leave the herbicides very soon and move on to the T0 s . Weather is driving me crazy two nice days then...

Grassweed burdens in winter wheat are higher than usual in many areas this season, leaving many fields requiring additional control measures to protect crop performance and reduce grass seed return to the soil, warns Agrovista.
The problem has been caused by a variety of factors, says Agrovista...

So below is a silage aftermath that had all gone to seed after the drought so we cut and baled it.
I'm just abit concerned that there appears to be quite a few residual grass seeds left over.
The plan would be to direct drill winter wheat into this stubble after it has been burnt off with...
I have some spring wheat (cochise) to cut for a customer but all the heads are virtually upright. The moisture is fine, the grain is pinched ( and I assume providing little weight to help the necking over process) and doesn't rub out nicely in the hand at all. It has evidently given up but if it...
I know the basics of pre em herbicides, a fine firm moist seed bed & don't disturb it afterwards.
But how does it actually kill the weed.
Does the weed germinate hit the pre em layer & die?
or Does the weed die as it germinates?
or is the seed discouraged from germinating & may even remain...
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...
Planning to drill winter wheat into this ex-Italian ryegrass, really reluctant to plough as the soil looks good however, as you can see, there is a large seed bank waiting to germinate. Is another pass with glyphosate enough to sort the problem? The other option is to wholecrop it but I’d prefer...
Started on a farm in feb and they have been growing a blend of kerrin, crispin and gleam. I’ve sent a few loads into central store and the bushel is really low. The crops look good but aren’t yielding as much as they look.
Bushels around 68.
Had t0 teb, t1 .8 ascra, t2 1l revystar, t3 azoxy +...
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...
