Take all risk

[Castlemaine]

I've got a first wheat in a field that was pasture for 40+ years , looks a nice crop, what's the take all risk for a 2nd wheat ?
The same as normal arable land or less as it's been pasture for so long ?

I would guess soil type has more bearing than the fact was pasture though you might be right. Be aware wire worm can be worse in the second year

My personal experience is that take all risk is higher in the second year after long term grass than in established “arable” fields. That’s on silty clay, no idea why, but I would steer clear of a second wheat in that position on the ground here.

Less than a 1 year break before the 1st wheat but with long term grass the soil can be a bit loose and puffy which can cause problems

if you have avoided wire worm this year they can be worse in the second wheat

The Take-all has probably survived on weed grasses in the sward so it will be no less prevalent in the second year than in an arable rotation.
