[QUOTE="E_B, post: 6980507, member: 5035"] A few photos from a walkabout yesterday. All crops drilled with a Mzuri Protil. Can't remember the drilling dates. Augustus maize straight into wheat stubble, 100kg DAP for the most part down the front leg. Was originally disappointed with this as it suffered patchy emergence on the clay patches due to the dry but also slug damage. However I'm feeling happier with it now, given the season and also the fact that our ploughed maized isn't exactly romping away either. Areas against hedges and trees haven't grown. [ATTACH type="full"]885907[/ATTACH] Winter beans after two year grass ley. Drilled this at the very beginning of October, a couple of days after we had 70+mm in one day. This is a heavy field, but the grass kept the soil dry and friable. Really like this technique, hopefully we will get a good cheap wheat afterwards. Haven't really seen a negative consequence from drilling them early and deep into good conditions.
