    Has anyone ever autumn established SFI AHL2 after a crop off winter wheat, grown fast seeding crops such as mustard and then gone into a spring barley late March early April? Probably a good reason why it isn’t being done!

    Too late for rape?

    I’ve just burnt off and dd permanent grass seed 3 days ago. As an after thought, to graze a few ram lambs in the winter, can I broadcast rape at a quarter rate to boost protein? What are people’s view on this please? Otherwise, are there any other suggestions. Thanks all.

    Just going around a couple of fields that had spring wholecrop, barley and peas and there’s a surprising amount of clover coming in them.

    Hedge cutting in August

    I've seen people taking a chance and starting hedge cutting a bit early in previous years but never in the 2nd week of August, in fields right next to a busy main road too. Not good for the image of farming.

    I've recently started leasing some land that was in continuous grass for years. I've noticed a good bit of wireworm damage on tubers. A neighbour recommended mustard as a biofumigant but advisor said I'd be wasting my time. Question is, what biocontrol are you guys using?
