Think we will undersow ryegrasses in future. Were hoping to bang in some forage rye but 48 hours of rain has checked that idea
At what stage?

Once the maize is well established and sprayed so June probably
Have you seen anyone doing it over there? Generally they do it at V6. Seen it done here but we can get more variability due to drought. Causing uneven stand or it just dies.

We tried it 10 years ago or so, spread it with till spreader when the maize was about knee high, found that it did where the maize didnt and vice versa
Wouldnt worry about it, cattle will trample them in and plough in spring againFew wheelings here and there

Think stable comes from Cumbria rather than USYeah but I think you have much faster maize growth rates in US
Never seen it making much difference, just dont plough it in spring til rest of field is sowed or else plough it and plough it again before sowingDoes the ground getting torn up like that not have an adverse impact on next years crop? I saw some horrendous ruts round Limavady the other day. They had cut the headland then left the middle to harvest when weather improves but it looked awful.

How much per acre was plastic?I myself am clearly a big fan of the plastic system, with all the mess being made this year and the added cost of grass seed etc will more people be looking to plastic?
Its over 8 weeks ago we chopped ours and i live in probably the most marginal area on this thread, the cost isnt that outlandish when you take into account its gets less fertiliser, spray goes on with the drill and i believe you get a better feed?
