[QUOTE="BigBarl, post: 7708687, member: 4533"] I’ve been considering continuos spring wheat in my head over the past few weeks in an attempt to copy a North American type system of tillage in the autumn, 5 months off, drill in the spring, 4 months off, contractor to spray once or twice with fungicide and apply all N in the seed bed or shortly after, Combine, repeat. Would be blissfully simple and free up a lot of time to do other stuff way more profitable than arable farming. Main things putting me off are ergot and take-all but plenty of seed with latitude should sort the take-all and ergot is unavoidable if you’re going to get it. Spring barley would work a bit better I guess but have tried barley heavy rotations on one block and got bad ramularia issues. [/QUOTE]
