[QUOTE="holwellcourtfarm, post: 7546951, member: 42914"] It's "getting interesting" to run a farm here.... The days of successfully following a recipe are clearly gone. The "average" column is the Met Office long term averages for their nearest station to here. May is usually a warm month with regular rainfall hence reliable rapid grass growth. Silage first cuts are "normally" in the 3rd week of May. This year some folk in the much wetter western counties are grazing their silage ground in desperation. That's clearly not good for next winter. Those 2020 April and May rainfall figures hide the fact that there were long gaps between big rainfall so, like this year, the growth stalled. This time its been dry And most nights in April had frost. Time to adapt or get out. [/QUOTE]
