Spring beans here last year were bad 50% of normal , but wheat all firsts were excellent at 11T/HAcross the board probably down 20% on average, Spring Beans probably worse than that, 2nd wheat and w barley perhaps not quite that bad. Some 1st wheats on some stoney light land were shocking!
A heavy thunderstorm on June 1, must have given just enough moisture for the wheat to hang on, no real rain till harvest . Dry summers suit us in soggy Shropshire.
