I dont think it is all for the muck. Digging out packers full or chopped straw and wet mud is never fun. And seeing what long stubbles are like after winter has been a revelation. Of course, most non-cereal residues will incorporate very easily, but I am getting around to thinking that winter seedbeds after a cereal crop are actually better with the straw off. I have little interest in stock, but if it will increase yields then worth looking at. For me it is total return on capital I am after, but looking at the medium-term picture for blackgrass, going to have to do something!
