Cant direct drill here too many wheelings on land & water still standing in the yet to be drain repaired parts, starting tomorrowPutting in 120 acres this year.....probably our most profitable crop in 2016. Direct-drilled; 100 units N, one broad leaved weed herbicide, combined at 14%mc, and probably yielded in excess of 5.75 t/ha..don't know exact yield as still some to be collected.
what seed rates are best ?
what kind of land you on?On heavy land 11 stone /acre
Light land 10 stone / acre
.
Last year we did find that the claydon drilled oats out yielded the plough and vadderstad system by 25 % all drilled on the same day and same areas shared between the 2 systems , 2 systems were used as it's on shared agreement with a neighbour on a block of land rented.

DD is a foreign language up here
MinTill & Ploughing Apart from a fair bit of DD OSR now. which i still do mine MinTill & Subsoil tramlines before hand.

I hear what your saying but cant deal with half a crop & gotta do it right first time or am well outta pocket.Everything from hideous badly reinstated open cast clay , to ash with medium loam with reasonable clay content.. more n more are getting there direct drills going , just having the bottle to make the mistakes n adopt a different way of thinking ...

I default to 12 stone / acre 185 Kg/H
We grow a variety called Husky
can be sowed winter or spring and can yield 4T and bushel over 50
a white oat as I understand.
With the 3 crop rule its the third brother and was grown in land that never grew oats before
People were amazed at yields

What do you follow them with?250 acres split canyon and Conway light land but they do better than winters and no risk of frost heave. Usually get 2.5 to 3 had 4 in 2012 when it rained all the time.

Most straw is baled so there is surface compaction to deal with, muck n straw to bury Plough is still King for me in all these instances.
