[QUOTE="Clive, post: 97578, member: 6"] I think tightness of soil after all the rain we had could be the issue maybe ??? Better structured and protected soils (trash or cover crops) would fair better or light cultivation fix as suggested This is not an issue that many other successful notil countries have to deal with so maybe an issue unique to the UK's climate therefore no point looking for answers elsewhere we will have to evolve systems tht work in the UK I think on soils that are relatively new to notil it's important not to be too single minded and get that shallow cultivation tool out if its needed in such situations ?? I see cover crops before spring cropping as another solution as they will protect the soil from weather and their roots will help loosen the soil I the seeding zone ? As said above it would be nice to pin down these reasons for failure or poor crops when they happen to avoid walking into exactly the same trap next year [/QUOTE]
