[QUOTE="ajd132, post: 7855157, member: 4612"] Main reason I don’t plough is because it’s expensive and rarely achieves a more profitable crop from our experience. The crops look better in the winter then no yield difference. It also creates the need for more cultivation the next year and creates a much higher fixed cost base. This is on our soil type anyway. Saying that I did get a contractor to plough 40ha this year (long story). High prices now I should probably buy a plough for next year and burn up the carbon from years of direct drilling and get an absolute mega crop! [/QUOTE]
