[QUOTE="Brisel, post: 6589604, member: 166"] I've found the opposite with spring barley here. My yields have gone down a bit. I think it's more to do with a wet March followed by no rain after sowing in April, May, June and July. Tillering seems poor but that's mostly for wide row spacing of 33 cm with a Claydon strip till drill and lack of rain. I can't increase nitrogen fertiliser - half is pre drilling and the rest pre emergence and it's for malting. Other spring sown crops have not done well either - beans, oats or linseed. My wheat yields have gone up slightly. Osr is declining slowly but that's due to cabbage stem flea beetle not establishment. Overall I'm no worse off but have saved time, soil and money. Most of the money savings are from reduced wearing parts as I'm on very abrasive flint soils that eats tyres and steel. What drill are you using [USER=25454]@Acke[/USER] ? [/QUOTE]
