[QUOTE="Feldspar, post: 1607654, member: 386"] Just looking at the yield map funnily enough. Combined it last night. Yield not amazing overall - too low a plant population overall due to not high enough seed rate and we were late on the first fungicide which let septoria in. Didn't do an earwash fungicide and that left it a bit dirty near the end. Generally a not very good field though. Probably about the 4-7 t/ha mark (i.e. quite variable) with a rough 5 t/ha average.That said the two other spring wheat fields we had which were Claydon drilled about four days earlier into nicer meadow soil were around the 7-8 t/ha mark with the same chem timings. Crop was only just fit. As for the difference between the Claydon and Sumo area there wasn't as much difference as we were expecting - it wasn't night and day between the two. Combine driver said he couldn't see that much difference on the screen in the good bits of both. Claydon was more patchy which I think would give a lower average yield. Just trying to decipher the MF telemetry data - blooming software is malfunctioning slightly. One comment was that the Sumo area was a noticeably cleaner for weeds (particularly BLWs). Whether that is just a function of the row spacing I'm not sure. One other comment is how well this field traveled - it's been direct drilled for two years and we didn't drill in tramlines and I couldn't find the tramlines in the dark which is a good sign. Need to peer at the data a bit more before really deciding. [/QUOTE]
