[QUOTE="Zippy768, post: 6519691, member: 59028"] Yep we did, and am just finishing the ploughing for this years. Tbh the desire to plough was pushed by the fact that - like [USER=44728]@Two Tone[/USER] - our ploughed yields quite frankly pi55 on other methods of establishment we have tried. Also by ploughing, I can drill with ours instead of getting a contractor. I think having a clod and trash free seed bed leaves the little sods with fewer places to hide. Not something my agronomist really believes in tho. He thinks, trash free or not, osr emerging in the next 10 days or so will be under threat. I think we may also benefit from fewer osr growers in the immediate locality. Stubble fields are alot closer to destined osr land this year so we will see :nailbiting: Wont be drilling til the end of the month. Just in time for this long awaited heatwave to take all the moisture out of my ploughing :banghead: [/QUOTE]
