Very welcome rain.

Wildlife, Landlord and my vision of how this should look and subsidies last and least.

To put it in perspective, what was and is the field size?
My biggest field is 3.5 hectares (8.75 acres) and average is under 1.5 (3.75 acre) so dividing up fields is something that is a no no to me.

More ploughing.

How many furrows?

It seems a good solid plough, some bits I prefer over the lemken some bits I'm not so sure on.

It's on the 7.250 and it's 8 furrows.

I genuinely look forward to seeing your posts of what appears to me as a successful/traditional/mixed family farm

Thank you, there's definitely no shortage of work, but as my OH always says, every single day is different. Which is true, there's plenty of variety and enough livestock in each area to be managable, profitable and, most importantly, enjoyable

Turned out nice in the end. Warm front creeping in as light faded.
