Started our wheat today. Well went round the field twice to entertain my grandson. If pushed I’d have carried on, but as all the family were here, decided to stop and wait till Monday.

The yield is OK surprisingly!

Still waiting for the last 15 ha of Rape to get fit. Not rounduped any of it off as natural rather than liquid sunshine has worked well for us so far this year and I’d swear yields are always better if you can leave it.

But this the first harvest I have done where we started the wheat ( will probably even finish it all!) before we finish the Rape.

Is there much to calibrating the yield and moisture ?
We have a CX8040 and I was rendering as the owners manual is a fair read haha

How’s your wheat running @slim shiny ?

Not as bad as expected tbh, the worst bits on the real light land is running around 7.5t/ha, the better bits on the light land is running around 9-9.5. The wheats on the stronger land are still green so won’t be into them for another week to 10 days but they are looking quite promising considering the season they’ve had

Are those irrigated?

What kind of Topper do you use on your rushes @Gator ?

Some bits had 3 inches of irrigation some bits didn’t have any

LGP fert spreading today.

Turning wheat headlands

 

[Fraserb]

Cut some barley and wholecrop

 

[Dman2]

Made a start today, Glacia winter barley
Pleasantly suprised at the yield and straw

And no drying needed either

Hopefully it will stay dry tonight and will be finished here tomorrow

 

[Greenbeast]

Had some observers at a hog roast venue yesterday....

They were doing farm tours on this beauty

Took the micropigs to a party today (a 40th birthday!!)

Piggy painting

Belly rubs (paint on my finger, not blood)

All a bit much for Peter

Came home to do the farm afterwards, feels like this must be essential supplies on a free range pig farm

This evening has been mainly spent practicing my colouring in. I wonder how many Natural England and RPA staff are working on a Sunday evening,?
