Well the heat has killed off some spring beans locally gone totally brown in the last 2 days
Ive had the exact same scenario but I’m on heavy ground.Rubbed some gravity out in my hand this afternoon , it's on a very light piece of ground and has always looked well , 3 weeks ago I would of guessed nearly 4 ton crop , I have just moved my estimate to nearer 3 ,
Don’t lose hope. Cut 20 acres of Extase today, 25% of which has been dead or flattened by badgers for a month. Moisture ranged from 11.2-18.2, but averaged 3.7t/acre. 76kg. We are on gravel and incredibly dry. The older I get, the less I know. Must be the sunshine.Rubbed some gravity out in my hand this afternoon , it's on a very light piece of ground and has always looked well , 3 weeks ago I would of guessed nearly 4 ton crop , I have just moved my estimate to nearer 3 ,
not losing hope , it is what it is , im sold at £326 on my feed wheat anyway and grown on £288 nitram so should just scrape a profitD

We're heavy and 4 ton went in MayIve had the exact same scenario but I’m on heavy ground.
Seen quite a few around here done one round and packed in.Had a nibble at the wheat. Despite some testing 12% there are too many greens and soft ones so packed up after half a tank at 18.5%.
That’s about it. Sticking it in 3 ton trailer with a pedestal all of it’s own.Seen quite a few around here done one round and packed in.
Wheat looks fit, straw all died off, but you don't have to look hard to find grains 30%.
Your 18.5% is what I'd guess two thirds is really hard 11-12% and the other third 30% soft grains.
Middle of next week I think will be about right here.
