Just thinking aloud here.. Getting on for spring barley,maybe better off with something else. Thinking a couple of ton of grain maize off the 10a might be better. Would be all fed in house to beef. Can sow it with the combi, Have small conventional combine header to cut it(if it will do it)...

Production of some crops has been decimated due to the loss of insecticides over the last 20 years, sorry 45 years. Has the bee population increased, if not why not?

Anyone using this compost on grassland ? I make haylage every year and have no livestock, I'm very reluctant to import Slurry or Dung as in the past I've found that it's a great way to import weeds /docks etc. It seems that at times this compost can be obtained FOC, so just thinking it might be...
