[QUOTE="Huntstreet, post: 9075648, member: 76554"] This has been an interesting 14 pages to read on Sunday morning. My thoughts would be AHL2 needs to be a break crop to get the field back into wheat. So it replaces Linseed, OSR or Spring oats for example. In the south-east, I think there is a chance to get plants to provide seeds if planted in July or August. I like Clives approach and think that would work. However, I assume you would glyphosate in the spring to take out any grassweeds before sowing the flowing plants to forfil the second half of AHL2? Could a rotation look like wheat, AHL2, wheat, AHL2, Wheat, AHL2 etc. Or wheat, wheat, AHL2, Wheat, wheat, Beans? You could spin seed on in July if following wheat or avatar drill if the crops off early or (W barley). Then avatar in the spring for flowing plant element. Spray off in September and DD with Wheat. Stack the £45 no isecticides on it as well. Planting a spring cash crop is risky for reasons previously outlined in this thread. I would rather do the cover crop option and then plant a spring crop. There are risks involved with the weather but that's the same if you plant linseed or OSR or any crop for that matter. [/QUOTE]
