[QUOTE="ajd132, post: 8148155, member: 4612"] We’ve got some. All drilled September and some second wheat. But only a small amount that will harm yield. We are much better than we were 5 years ago. Plenty round here seem to be much worse. We’re just trying to keep it at an economic level. It’s been here for 70 years on this soil. I was getting annoyed about it the other day and someone I farm for told me to stop worrying about it and get over my ego/pride. I don’t think it’s financially viable to try and completely get rid of it. I’ve sprayed areas off in the past and it really hasn’t made much difference. basically if you have winter crops it’s Ll gamble as to whether the residuals work well or not. we have lost more money trying to drill Everything in the last two weeks of October through bad crops or no crops in attempt to get a perfect farm than we ever have through slightly messy looking crops edit: low fixed cost base means double breaks of spring cereal is still very profitable, add in countryside stewardship cover crop payment and carbon selling it becomes a No brainier. All our messy wheat this year, which will make us a fortune and grown with cheap fert will go into spring barley, and then spring oats or winter beans which will be grown with much less but more expensive fert.
