[QUOTE="warksfarmer, post: 6413, member: 192"] Its difficult to explain what i mean without sounding rude, but its not meant that way ...... My point is that 'HE' was saying that. There's 70 million people in the UK alone let alone the world so what makes him right? If his system was so proven the worlds farming would be using his system, but its not. I get what he says because if I didn't I would not of adopted the albrect system but just because Kinsey says this and Kinsey says that, it does not mean its right. We have to respect him for his knowledge and achievements but he has no idea about our individual soils which is my point, so all he can provide is a very basic starting point which must be developed soley for your own land using your own knowledge with reference to him at certain times. I think if you've read his book and heard him speak, then thats you and Kinsey done because the rest of it is between you and your own soil. Even if he spent a day with you on your own farm thats great but you've been there 35 years +. He cannot possibly know about all the little issues and why one field in a block of land yields different to another over the hedge. If you have a father and son team farming together then generally theres a good 60 years experience of the land that can be sat round the kitchen table. Thats far more beneficial knowledge which combined with a bit of Kinsey info from his book, than getting him to visit for the day. Combine that with some upto date soil analysis, some tissue sample results and your own agronomist then thats as good as it gets for me ....... Albrect has shown me I need gypsum, slag and compost. Job done which combined with tissue analysis and some trace elements where required is as good as it gets. Seed breeders are holding yields back more than soils. [/QUOTE]
