Got a block of rented ground (40acres) light land 800 ft above sea level joins fell ground which is currently in oilseed afer quite a spell in barley will put it into wheat next as its so high can be late to harvest last time it was in grafton early to ripen can you still get this variety or...
I know there have been threads in the past about liquid fertiliser but can't find any recent ones. Have been wondering about moving over to it, mainly to improve spread accuracy. Have some questions though:
Firstly, I've heard/read several comments regarding sprayer compatibility. I just...

After successive years where March has seen the ground begin to dry out after the winter downpours, 2023 appears to have bucked the trend. CPM met up with the Bayer Crop Doctor team to survey sites around the country and get a feel for the...
Parting ways with our agronomist and the parent company which is a well known, supposedly well respected and reviewed farming/ management service company.
Long story short, lack of agronomist visits, agronomy done on timings rather than in field situation, non existent weed control this season...
Arable novice here.
What are the benefits of growing triticale in an arable rotation?
Is it a breakcrop with wheat?
How cheap is it to grow, and what yield would you expect from land that would normally do 3.5 tonne per acre wheat?
Presumably combined, and the straw is of use too?
Many thanks
We are seeing high levels of Septoria in our wheat, even on varieties such as Champion and Extase.Our agronomist says all crops the company are walking are the same and it seems to be throughout the country.Lets just hope we get some settled weather and are able to protect new leaves although...
Chatting with my agronomist about increasing the straw my crops yield as I’ve been short for the cattle the last few years. All taller varieties and grazed by sheep in the winter, also want more bulk so the JD rotary doesn’t smash it up as much. I’m looking to reduce growth regs and he said...
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...
With oilseed rape crops in such varying levels of growth and development across the country, clear decisions ought to be made on how to manage the crop, or in some cases decide if it’s worth further investment, according to the latest advice from Hutchinsons.

Agronomy business ProCam has called for growers to maximise oil content to optimise bonuses paid on top of yield despite the falling of UK oilseed rape (OSR) from the previous £600/t.
ProCam agronomist Daniel Hatchett said, if an oil bonus pays...

How are people getting on now we are paying for a dry Jan/Feb?
Spring barley drilled 2 weeks ago, not through yet. Drilled this first as on heavy ground which we managed to muck in Feb but no ploughing and it went in well.
Some spring beans drilled 10 days ago and had another go this afternoon...

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
