    Continuous barley; to bale or not to bale?

    Red Tractor Portal

    I'd never heard of it until it was mentioned on the combineables thread the other day. Now my inspector has mentioned it to me and I have registered and logged in. A few questions- is this easier than wattsapping documents or letting the inspector see hard copies? Anyone who has used it? (some...
