    Typical forage yirlds

    A local dairy farm has asked us if we’d think about growing some whole crop rye and forage maize for their dairy herd which they want to expand but don’t have the land to provide the forage needed. So what could we expect yield wise (realistic please say 6 yr average) if built into an arable...

    What graze-able crop can I drill into an existing grass sward?

    As per the title, got some difficult grass land (patchy sward, terrible drainage, dries out over summer) that I'd like to improve. Trying to avoid tillage and spray... Can I drill anything in this spring, that will get a root down, build organic matter, and can be grazed by cattle? TIA

    Basic 3m tine drill, any small manafacturer

    Does any small engineering firm make a 3m basic tine direct drill, I'm looking at making a 3m tine drill with metcalfe legs/tines, 250mm spacing, 11 legs in total, following harrow with hopper and accord type metering. Something similar to what @Wombat built, probably based on 80mm box frame.

    Anyone tried Spring oats drilled now (early Feb) as a harvestable and ensilable catch crop - late April - before maize? Apparently it's relatively common in America but different strokes out there

    We’ve grown an overwinter black oat and vetch cover crop that up until the frost came in December was looking really healthy, now it’s just dead on the floor and left very little to graze with sheep, bar some wheat volunteers and a few patches of annual meadow grass. We have rape in the rotation...
