Nice to see you picked a quiet time of the year..

See you at the Ledbury event "if we are not combining "

 

[Soya UK]

Yes - we know it is a busy time of year, but the best plan is to come to the 9.30am meeting and then go combining in the afternoon. If you want to see soya, then it really wants to be late July or August, so there isn't much choice in the timing i'm afraid..........

First dry day for ages so missed our local event. Any feedback from anyone who has attended?
I like the idea of growing the crop but the late harvest puts me off, but it will be interesting to see how the local growers get on with it.

Hi Jim, our soya varieties are early to mature and we would look at a harvest window of mid - late September. I attach a photo of one of our soya crops in Kent that was taken this morning showing that the senescence phase is beginning. Happy to chat with you further about you potentially growing with us.
