Thinking I'd like to reseed some permanent pasture with Sam3 herbal ley, but assume that I will need an EIA, was arable until 2002 when it went into arable reversion
My plan going forward is to use a 3yr cropping rotation of Winter wheat with companion, winter barley with companion, NUM3 or AHL1 as break crop.
Volunteer beans in the wheats have shown to have a good effect so I’ll stick with that but what should I use with the barley, do I need to consider...

I can think of two sprayer operators who got to early 60s but no longer with us, both with chemical related body conditions, is this a national wide scandal?

Just debating if its worth drilling maize as game cover after harvest so mid to late August (Hopefully).
Anyone done it? Or is it best to stick a mustard crop in instead?
Some twenty years ago I remember reading how we wouldn't need to plant wheat every year by about now, it would grow back every year they just needed to perfect the breeding. What happened?
Two weeks ago I asked for volunteers to help organise a farmers protest. To make the risk-reward of farming worthwhile.
JUST ONE FARMER STEPPED FORWARD!
In the face of this level of apathy I give up on trying to get (English) farmers to do anything.

Got most of the farm sampled recently, pH, indicies and Organic matter. Makes quite interesting reading, P and K indicies are generally 3-4, couple of low K values, around 2, in fields cut twice last year which is expected. Most interesting though is the soil OM. A range between 5.1% and 12.4%...
