Just out of interest what direct drill and was all residue left or baled ?
moore unidrill old style. Residue chopped( rape straw) .
Not blaming the drill. It was my own misjudgement to expect a disc / tine drill to cope with solid wet clay and endless rain. Thankfully not a big area but an experiment to prove it that myself once and for all that direct drilling heavy land here is a non starter unless conditions are perfect which is almost never.
It’s worked well on the sand though and I have therefore 75% of my winter wheat up now, though it won’t break any records.
