[QUOTE="teslacoils, post: 6310508, member: 127792"] Re osr, why I think osr is failing comes partly as we are moving more soil to plant it. Subsoil it in and we get BG in bands, which relies on the graminicide performing well. We have ace BG control in the osr this year but at the cost of pre-em, cmax, crawler and astrokerb and being able to travel pretty much at will in autumn. Add in hybrid seed cost and fbt rent and there is a fine margin for profit / break even yield is scarily high. Last year's osr was the perfect storm of bobbins and has led to high seed return. Ground was simply too hard to plough. I expect this one event has put me back five years of good work.......and has led to the almost total removal of osr from my cropping. [/QUOTE]
