Why not broadcast cereals with a fertiliser spreader to save the cost of a drill?

[QUOTE="nxy, post: 7823834, member: 466"] We have been broadcasting at least some of our cereal crops for years mostly because we are in a wet part of france and the weather can quickly catch you out. If you get someone on a fert spreader and a couple of six metre cultivators following them you can cover some ground in a day. After a couple of years of experimenting with pre emergence herbicides on broadcast crops we now use them routinely. This year we are growing mostly triticale and barley and its all had flufenacet 200 g/ha and diflufenican 100 g/ha pre emergence. I have seen more damage on direct drilling this year from pre emergence where the chemical has been washed into the slot than on broadcast crops. [/QUOTE]
