2 ton is looking like a good Crop this yr, be lots worse than that. My osr won’t make 1 ton an acre either.
W Barley sprayed off a week ago mainly to kill the late flush of volunteer wheat and wild oats. OSR god knows.6 weeks here
did a 17 acre field of winter barley yesterday. i think i could just about fill a 29 ton lorry . It was so short in places that i was using the reel to sweep it onto the bed. Hopefully that's the worst field.
Have cut 200 acres of rape so far. Best of it 3.6t/ha. Worst 2.3 t/ha.Might scrape a 3ton average. Down to 4.5% moisture by the end of the day too :-(
Similar here. Running at about 3t average. But very low spend and low fixed cost direct drilling structure. Leaves a nice margin even at the low yieldHave cut 200 acres of rape so far.

I think it’ll be a very mixed bag this year. It’s been a long time since I had such a poor crop of barley.that’s not good silver fox, the pictures of your crops you post on here make me feel sick with envy so god knows what others will be like?
??I just photograph the better ones .
Not even "slightly disappointed"?Osr doing approx 2t/ha. Hybrid barley 8t/ha , very pleased. Won’t know until it goes how much but think over rather than under.
Not even "slightly disappointed"?
Unlike IRs, yields can't go below zero so there will need to be a tie-breaker on the number of times it was actually planted to get to zero yield.a world record low yield
No I will better that with my very disappointing ww block that i predict will realise 5t/ha at bestNot even "slightly disappointed"?
That looks pretty good to me, I'd be happy with it, especially the swaths of strawInto some better barley this afternoon . Sown later after maize , but on a field called the gravel hole, so it never yields very well .
Glad I’ve only got 30 acres of winter barley this year .View attachment 894388View attachment 894389
You started yet Robbie?That looks pretty good to me, I'd be happy with it, especially the swaths of straw
