There might be an AD plant set up locally & I would grow a break crop in an arable rotation for them. I do have a blackgrass problem. Maize is not an option due to a game shoot on the farm I run. Rye is a delicacy for the French partridge, as we've found out in the past! Rye isn't a take all...

I didn't get much planted last season, don't want to get it wrong again Mine is ready to go, thinking I'll go after the weekend,16th Sept at 100 kg. Choice is Dawsum, Skyscraper, Champion. Toying with the idea of blending and adding some Gleam in too. Kind-ish land, good seedbeds, 1st wheats???

Personally I think it is to late to plant turnips so normally switch to mustard with tillage radish interval mix . What else is good to graze? Store lambs ? Thanks JB

I seen a few of the videos of harvesting in Montana and Canada, cutting a variety of crops, regularly yielding 10 to 20 bushel at best, the farmers say a bumper yield would be 40 to 50 bushels. Cutting with a 45ft header at 6kph would be around 20ac/hour or between 5 and 25t/ hour. Why are they...

Does anyone feed Rye in there cattle finishing rations? I have used oats, wheat and barley, but with the increasing amount growing locally I wondered how it performed.

how late can i go - would next week be too late here in the ease on very free draining sandy gravel planning on DD with verdo disc drill then flat roll in to spring barley stubble . barley sprayed off pre harvest so still clean . combine coming tomorrow 🤞🤞

Sowed some spring barley with ergot in it but thankfully no ergot in the harvested crop. Sowed some winter wheat with no ergot in it, but unfortunately lots of ergot in the harvested grain. With home saved seed how important is it to not sow ergot? Will i need to colour sort my home saved seed...

Rented a no-till drill from the County Soil and Water Conservation District for this 30 acres. Large box held the orchardgrass, smooth bromegrass, and winter rye. Small box had the red clover, alsike clover, and timothy. I rolled this prior to and after seeding with a rented landroller. My...

You must use a seed mix that contains at least 2 species from 2 or more of the following plant families: brassicas legumes cereals or grasses herbs Ive read this many times and still dont understand what is required here. Must I plant four Species? Two each from Two seperate plant families...

Any experience of this variety ? I'm attracted by its BYDV tolerance having had a good experience growing RAGT Grouse BYDV resistant wheat this year Looks good on paper but as always nothing quite like a bit of direct from farmer feedback and experience ...

How's everyone finding grass growth? I know it's later in the season and it's always going to be pretty slow this time of year but I went and fenced an away block of ground that was mown about 6 weeks ago to find that it's pretty yellow and the regrowth is very poor. Usually this block grows...

Does anybody else find a direct link between lame sheep and lambs on low pH land? Not saying it’s the only cause of scald in lambs but we have a bit of land that has quite a low pH than the rest. Whatever goes onto that plot comes back pretty lame and we’re constantly fighting a battle to keep...

Got some barley stubble that im wanting to sow into either westerwolds or italian to grow over winter and cut early before ploughing to put into spring crops again. Which is best for this as in whats best feed value,tonnage,able to deal with a harsh winter if we get it?

Hi everyone, currently we put in just over 200 acres of corn, have used a plough and combination for the last 25 years, this setup is probably worth around £10k Is there a better way of doing it than this? Long term I do want to look into direct drilling and changing our system completely but...

We have taken on 10 acres of National Trust Land that had been abandoned by them for two years. It was all thistles and rough grass. Initially I put 5 Angus cross heifers on it from late January and gave them some feed blocks. They actually did a great job reducing the thatch of grass by grazing...

We are clearing some drawers and shelves out in the (heatpump) plant room, and I came across my old Protimeter digital grainmaster. A little grubby but seems sound. Still got everything in the bag, meter, compression grinder, also incl 2 cards for barley/oats and wheat/rye and the 2 calibration...
