[QUOTE="DrWazzock, post: 9074834, member: 2119"] Yes I was told that for every pound you spend on fertiliser you get £4 back (within reason) so if the same holds true for carbon then there’ll be an optimum much like the nitrogen economic optimum return graph thing that I never really understood. And I’d say without lifting up my calculator that 4t of winter wheat must be better than 2t of spring wheat on the carbon front from one acre. So is an an over wintered cover really holding its own on the carbon front of it leads to lower yield for the same amount of running about with drills, sprayers, spreaders and other machinery. I don’t know TBH. But thought it something worth considering. Typo which I thought I’d edited out. [/QUOTE]
