Following on from other threads I was just wondering what rotation people use.
I'm on heavy clay land and use a 'min til' type system.
Plan to do WB / WB / WOSR / WB / WB / Spr Beans
The barley will be grown for seed.
Just wondering what other break crops people would suggest? ( I want to keep the WB / WB options for various reasons ).
From a quick look round, there doesn't seem to be a reliable break crop that fits.
Maize - worried about ruts and ground conditions after.
LInseed - have tried spring before with varying success - worried Hares will eat any winter I grow.
Any root crop - again land condition afterwards.
