[QUOTE="teslacoils, post: 6379630, member: 127792"] Yes me too. However 50/50 winter spring has not been good here. We are also on clay. 2018 spring we had 165ac out of 2500. But still only got 65ac in. Scale that to 50/50 and it would have been terrible. I'm using grass. So wheat on my own land has always been one in four or five. But it will go to one in six. Three years grass. Three arable. Winter beans, wheat, either winter barley or spring barley. Kit will be reduced. Grass grows so well here that it would be crazy not to use it. Slight learning curve required. Would be nice to grow the beans and wheat for seed. Reduced area makes more roguing possible. Potentially rye for ad after the wheat as an entry to grass. Failing seed could home feed, then it's good bye crop assurance too! Fert from digestate, muck and liquid fert. Not even going to own a spinner. And if it goes tits up at least I'll have a clean farm to sell! [/QUOTE]
