[QUOTE="Pilatus, post: 632404, member: 381"] I thought from the little that I have read , that with zero /till and D/D ,(sorry I thought they were the same thing) one is not disturbing the soil seed bank of Black Grass seed and so one gradually reduces it,over a period of time with the use of rotations and herbicdes. Although not farming in my self any more,(blackgrass was not about on the Cotswolds then )I like to keep up with your direct drilling techniques,as I am sure that it is the way to go to reduce capital expenditure on huge tractors and the implements to go behind them and then there is the diesel to fuel them. It was low grain prices that partly forced Canadian farmers in to D/D and zero till, you guys are ahead of the game. [/QUOTE]
