We’ve had a very late planting season with many crops a month and a half behind. My earlier planted wheat looked very good in the good growing conditions of late. I’ve been gone from the uk for over twenty years and have list touch with many things. My question is what product is better for...

Who is doing one and what are you using .
Forecast after Wednesday is looking dry and warmer, so wondering if there’s much to be gained, other than piece of mind .
We have a big issue with grass weeds and it’s getting worse. We are ok if we have a big spread of crops but it simply just doesn’t pay due to poor yields of spring crops such as spring linseed, spring barley, spring beans spring wheat. We’ve also tried grass but without our own livestock we get...

Working on the basis that a healthy crop is the best way forward I hear of people using mirco nutrients on their crops thinking mainly of wheat and osr what products do you use and can you actually see a difference between treated and non treated to justify the application ? Currently we do use...
Do you spray magnesium on your crops ? We have high magnesium soils but I m lead to believe that this can be locked up and not available to the plant .Do you do tissue tests ? Also do you buy your magnesium in ibcs and what's a rough price ? Thanks
