How do you put up those fancy bar charts on the right ?
malting sb 310 ac
ww 180 (if the wind leaves anything)
wosr 25

Just wondering, as maltsters are stating great yields etc, on what? what's been cut or estimate of what's to be cut? Big difference if the weather does not improve.
 
This has made me feel a bit better , feels like I'm the last in the southern part of the country to be cutting wheat but with only 25 acres left I should be able to relax by mid afternoon as long as combine keeps rolling ,,,,,, then as long as I can make space we will start on 100 acres of beans ,,,,, been a slow harvest for us , couple of break downs , unloading on headlands for the first week to keep trailers off sodden ground , heavy crops and struggling to squeeze them into sheds or local storage , I even let my wheat cutting contract to a friend as I could see us getting behind , but all in all a good harvest so far , it seems so has everyone else and it's worth diddly squat

56 acres of wheat left so under 10%. Some little fields so its a squeeze with the combine on a couple. Was planning to finish today but drizzle here at the moment.

100% of spring oats and beans

Combine been parked a week while we drill osr and make space, Not enough staff and tractors to do 2 big jobs at the same time

Will be late this week before we get started again

Pretty relaxed but would be good to see the oats in now
