Just knocking a few ideas about. Before epoxy was banned we used adexar 62.5 g/litre (6% w/w) epoxiconazole and 62.5 g/litre (6% w/w) fluxapyroxad. Would buying straight fluxapyroxad and adding .5 of teb do the same thing. Would work out at £22/ha as apposed to revistar at £51 or vimog plus...
What would Wolverine or Librax same chem one or the other with Elatus Era say 1 litre of each plus pgr, Clormaquat and some Trinaxapac Ethyl for aT1 application?
Writing up my spray records from just applying some pre-ems, I looked back to mid 2000's. The amount of chemicals we use now compared to then and how we got by with simple fungicides makes it look like the industry has gone down the pan. A lot of actives have gone and those left we have been...
Considering growing a field to try this year in place of a spring barley crop which generally performs poorly on gravel.
Anyone a regular grower? How much N are you using, fungicide programme, yield?
And are you blending it in with a feed wheat heap to market?

That's why ELMS is a sh!tfest.
Not because of the Goldsmiths, or Carrie, or Packham, or the Moonbat, or Craig Bennett, or Tony Juniper.
Because of farmers putting it into the head of @Janet Hughes Defra that there are 'good' and 'bad' ways of farming.
That's why countless...
Hi each year I try something different for a small area of wheat this year I have put two large applications of two types of molasses on some wheat and some product of sfs, at the same time the field just smelled of molasses on fungicides until just into June zyatt is the variety growing. The...
Hi All,
For those who use an agronomist to help with work load who’s got a rec for T3?
Its very dry and wheat of our sensible varieties here very clean (Siskin /Extase etc)
Is teb/prochloraz the general go to in this rusty weather?Will it be needed?
For those that prescribe for themselves...
Our winter beans look really good at a distance but when you look closely there’s loads of flowers just finishing but very few pods in fact I’ve never seen so few pods!
Could it be the cold or lack of sun and bees or a bit of everything?
Copied from the BFU thread which is running about writing a letter to Rishi Sunak...
I was thinking about imports undermining our standards and prices. It doesn't even need imports to meet our standards. What I mean is, they don't need to be imports.
Take Ukrainian grain. Doesn't necessarily...
Previously we’ve always gone with Amistar and Teb. This year the agronomist has suggested Elatus Era but I’m in two minds because I am aware of it not being a cheap option.
I haven’t priced the two up yet and still busy on other things and I think it’s probably a week away from needing doing...
So, if you had folpet in the shed, a nice evening tonight and at least a week of rain coming up in the forecast, would you paint it on leaf 2?
Idea is to give a bit more flexibility for the T2 timing, or maybe even let me drop down from a Revystar to an Ascra type mix later on, if it comes dry...
I stuck a few haof linseed in 10 days ago, if only to convince myself that I shouldn't grow more of it. Its on land that hasn't grown linseed in as long as anyone can remember.
Just coming through now and getting absolutely smashed by flax flea beetle.
Where do they come from, what are they...
Spraying some late drilled Graham with t1 yesterday. No T0 applied. Plenty of yellow rust patches visible from the tractor cab. Surprised with it being an 8 for yellow rust. Anyone else seeing the same?
