Our ground has ploughed very well this year...Thanks for all your help and advice..... really useful stuff
The potatoes aren’t ours so they don’t have to stay in the rotation.... but its good money for doing nothing..... and a good wheat afterwards....
I’m not in a position to do anything at the moment, but I’m keen to learn as much as possible and build up a case to one day persuade the powers that be..... I can see how this year has been great advert for anything except ploughing
I’m really interested in the strip till drills but I often find people end up saying its just a half way house and if your going to do it you might as well go for it properly and dd.... maybe it depends on the soil type too....

Consider strip till drills as a starting point. After maize and spuds you may well need the soil loosening tine. It would be hard to go no till with maize & spuds as if you have to plough you're effectively pushing the reset button.
Mzuri are based at Pershore. I have a Claydon as a stepping stone into no till. Perhaps chat up @wellingtonfarmer as he's in your part of the world & runs a Mzuri.
In terms of knowledge, TFF is excellent. Look at joining BASE UK and get yourself to the Groundswell event next June. Lots of links to resources in a sub section of the Direct Drilling part of TFF.

Ish
well if spuds are so bad for the soil/planet, then we should tell the vegans they can't have them any more. Out of interest are there any other ways to grow spuds, like hydroponics. sorry, a bit off topicsomebodies got to grow spuds else there b no chips
