[QUOTE="warksfarmer, post: 100453, member: 192"] By chopping majority of our straw back in for the last 15 years and applying some sewage cake and compost means I have not bought any bagged P & K for 6 years and will not have to buy any for the next 10 years at a guess. Thats saving me at least £40/ac at current prices. £350/t for 0:24:24 at 300kg/ha to give me 70kg/ha P & K £42 x 1000ac = £42,000 x 10yrs = £420,000 thank you very much If the likes of 0:24:24 or whatever bagged P & K price increases further then I am even more quids in. Obviously I have a cost of the compost (sewage cake was foc whilst we used it) to offset against that saving but its a big saving. [/QUOTE]
