[QUOTE="Farmer Roy, post: 5215446, member: 71668"] just as an example, so you don't think we are only harvesting 1t / ha or something . . . given good moisture conditions & a kind season, Ive seen barley go 8t / ha from a planting rate of 50kg 2 kg canola ive seen go 5t / ha ok, these are good yields for us, but how do they compare with the long term averages over all of the UK ? I don't think low seeding rates are our limiting factor seed placement, accurate spacings & quick, even, establishment are more important than actual seed rate [/QUOTE]
