Is bydv not a issue over there
Not guilty, starting wb next week then onto some wheat but the majority still has spuds onions or beet in the way, no 2nd wheats here. Everything that I've pulled up ready so far has come down very well.
It is. Unless you direct drill apparently

The 3 that have been going are on what we'd call strong land.
I started ploughing today so might get some barley in next week if I get round to it. I've still got 40 acre of muck to spread so that'll keep me out of mischief and away from the drill for a day or two, then I want to get a good chunk ploughed so hopefully i can resist temptation for another week.

Or if you only gaze upwards of horizontal when walking your fields.
Unfortunately it appears so.

I've only got 1 field I would dare drill this month.
Remember what Triton say. Blackgrass is the farm manager. (and BYDV and takeall)
