[QUOTE="Two Tone, post: 7188222, member: 44728"] It is as you say, the grass weed "Blackgrass" situation, why the plough+combi still has a place. In my own situation, it was min-til that caused an explosion in Blackgrass on this farm, because it mixed the stubble surface seed throughout the soil profile. I rectified this by 4-5 years of good ploughing and have got 2/3rds of this farm back under control enough that I am now able to try No-til. Hopefully, the last 1/3rd will follow in a very few years to come. In fact, I will be quite confident to establish next year's Winter Linseed on that last 1/3rd, because there is sufficient alternative Blackgrass chemistry available for it. Meaning that maybe next year, the whole farm will be no-tilled! BUT, I ain't selling my plough or Combi just yet! [/QUOTE]
