New agronomist recommendation

What's the problem with your current agronomist ?

Are you using independent or distributor agronomist ?
Using one of the big companies. Had a really good one but he moved on so they have sent me a couple of different ones. I feel I am doing more than he is and very disappointed with advice on Zyatt when I’m told it is very succeptable to yellow rust and it is full of it. Would of expected to be advised to treat it differently. It seems they just follow a written plan. He does walk it well but so do I.

Lookin for new agronomist for combinable crops in north Warwickshire. I’m not overly happy with the one at the moment. Any suggestions appreciated.
Hi I’d be interested in having a chat, I’m an independent agronomist and always looking for a few more acres. Let me know?

Your right, my Zyatt has its own program, i was going to drop it but it does well and agronomist says YR is cheap to spray out so well worth growing.

Grow Zyatt for several years just thaught I would try a couple of tram lines with no sprays except some stimulant products no bother after T1 but after T2 rust has come in no septoria but all wheat has had 100 units of sulpher per acre.
