Really nice looking crop of stuff. When was that planted and after what? Will it be baleable a bit later if ground dries up? And what's the plan for the ground now after the rye and vetch?
Was in docks and some clover 🙈, plan is to drill forage rape into the stubble for summer crop and then into grass,clover and plantian, was planted mid October which was a little late, but with the mild winter it's grown better than I hoped

Christ! We must be in a rain shadow, only managed 8’!
We’re on the West Pennines. It just seems to drop on us. I’m used to it being wet, late drying up in the spring, soon turns wet again, wet all winter etc.. but this year has been exceptionally persistent. The land has not been properly dry since mid June. Running out of ideas, and time

Quick question, I got a non-conformance with my friends at red tractor for my movement records, didn't include breed or something like rhat

Does anyone know exactly what I have to put down for movements on or off?

I had a look at the website and it's very vague and non specific and more or less just says you have to keep movement records 🙄
