rain gauge

Can I get some thoughts on what to do with my wheat and remaining N? It’s barrel sown on the 1st of September. It’s had 65 kg of N so far with last dose on the 30th of March of 38kgs. I reckon it’s about growth stage 30. Nmax is 190. Was planning on putting some on next week. We are all Yara...

Apart from the silage fields or fields not grazed by stock I’ve never known grass growth as slow as this spring

I can't be one to complain because we had a lovely 7mm last weekend but the wind soon took it away. But had hopes for this weekend tho forecasters have put us just on the side of any of the proper rainfall. So who has had meaningful amount of rainfall,,,,,,,,, 2mm so far and hoping for more

Looking at (all) forecasts we could go through April with no recorded rain. Not idea after a wet winter!

Never seen fields dry out so quick . We are working on fields we could not get a tractor on at all last year ,

Showing error codes steering mode sensor 1 OORL And Steering mode sensor 2 OORL Rear axle not steering front only in all 3 modes Any advice please?

Nice few days dry weather next week ? Longest since Sept ? Thats what She just said.... Hope so (y) Happy days.

My rape barley and wheat are starting to look for feed going discouloured but it's to wet to spread would you wait until dry enough or go now and make a mark I'm a one man band and lambing is to start next week normally have the first dose on before

In response to the widely vilified AHDB and grain merchant opinions on how much wheat has been sown, I thought I'd start this poll. Remember to select your region as well as your % of planned winter wheat sown. One choice for %, one choice for region and one for the month sown (for the majority...

I have a couple of rain gauges around and about but had a look at my gauge last night and it measured 10 mm, but I know that as most of the rain we had yesterday was of the horizontal variaty I can't see it being measured ,,,,,, how do they measures horizontal rain?

It's been a while since I have come out of a winter with wheat that needs thickening. Normally my high seed rates mean the opposite. Some of the late drilled stuff on contract land is s bit thin though. Normally we would roll, allow it to recover then N then BWS or vice versa. Obviously rolling...

So this forum is full of international members poking our noses out here and there. Sometimes there's even questions from the UK about Canada which people are generally kind enough to tag me in because I'm worse than awful for seeing them myself :LOL: The last couple of years I've done a Day a...

Just north of Hertford, We managed to get 20 acres in last week but nothing since and now it’s really wet! Anyone else got anything in the ground?

Any suggestions on a decent weather station. I’d like to be able to see it on an app on my iPhone and look at rain fall data etc. Basically I want to be able to try and identify drought issues before we’re in them so I can make better decisions. Been looking at the netatmo station but not...

Feb 25 recorded so far this year 40mm, same time 2018 75mm I tempt fait will it be a dry year. 145Kw produced off of 40Kw Pv install on 24/2/19 install is a shallow angle.

taking a cue from others with their own threads....and upon a suggestion of a friend whom i keep 'entertained':rolleyes: so today.....up at the sheds at 6am to check for lambings although we're not supposed to start for a month:banghead:....just a single....penned it up and back for school...

:oops: Eh up! The idea of starting a thread about Holistic management has been on my mind for ages, if I am honest. Lets start by me putting my cards on the table - I have NO formal training, NO books, and NO interest in starting big wars on which way is best. I do, however, completely and...

Been raining virtually every day since mid July, it’s getting past a joke, they keep promising a dry spell but it never appears. I for one am getting fed up, is there any hope

Mod Note: New thread created by moving some posts. Haha - every second post on TFF seems to be about problems with townies, cyclists, dog walkers, trespassers etc etc The further from all that the better I reckon I couldn't cope with having non farming neighbours . . .
