There must be a hell of a lot of sh!t farmers then (me included)as iirc the national average seems to be somewhat different to fwi yields!

I got called by FW the other day to ask when I was starting harvest. If they call me in a week/ten days I will be thoroughly honest. Winter malting barley may push 7.5/ha but more like to be 6.5-7 is my current prediction

Current prediction here is 4 (feed).

We havnt had it as bad weather wise as some. I’m sure there will be some round here growing 13t/ha of bazooka. I couldn’t get that crap over 9.3 last year and our yields for all other crops were some of the highest ever!

I see fwi are already sprouting dried winter barley yields of 10t/ha. Yawn yawn yawn.

Nothing new , same around here , funny enough field size shrinks from drilling to harvest so I can understand why they get such figures , just don’t understand why as it’s quite sad really

How many will have standing WB after this week? Ours had only gone down in a couple of spots, and was looking very good.Not looking forward to gale force winds! Or does it need rain and wind to put it down?

 

[teslacoils]

Rain worse.

 

[Milkcow365]

There’s more green in it than you think . It’s also very dirty in the bottom as missed any autumn grass weed control.
we will be harvesting on Sunday though. Hybrid rye whole crop is ready

Sorry to hijack do you have a forage analysis of hybrid rye?

I don’t sorry . Ours goes to a digester .

Grafton after beans

Grafton after beans

For many years, Grafton after beans was always our very best result too, only reluctantly having to give it up here after the septoria n. disaster we suffered in 2017.

Works quite well for me beans, Grafton, OSR, Kerrin. With a bit of barley, 2nd wheat and winter oats thrown in to stretch the rotation to a very loose 5 years. Kerrin looks like it's a good shower away from going down. It actually looks better than the Grafton but the combine will tell which is best.

the combine will tell which is best.

For many years, Grafton was great here - bushel and standing equally as good as, and yield better than, exsept.

Always fun to combine, always looked forward to it.

Then, all of a sudden, it went down to septoria.

 

[Honest john]

yields will be pathetic here - the rain was too late for crops that had already died in the dry spring or at best dropped most of their tillers

from the road things look half reasonable but there is simply not enough ears to make any type of yield

About these parts again look ok from a low car.
Some very thin due to busted seed & damage from per eme spray.
some lost tillers due to buggered soil drilled far to wet.
Early drilled crops look great.
Spring Peas & Beans look very poor. Some crop won’t see a combine at worst.
Beet & Maize Crops very up & down to soil type.

Was quite a smart move, then, to put my new Lambo on our tractor inventory last December.

Not only did it help quite a bit with last year's tax bill, hid most of this year's deficiencies, and going really well until being completely shafted by the idiot Clarkson blowing the whistle with sleepy KPMG.

I live in hope, but I guess I'll budget on 5-6 t ha on wheat. Although I did hear an estate manager nearby stating that he expects his yields to down from average of 12.5 t ha to around 9 t ha (lifes a bitch).
9t ha? if I get that to sell this year I'll dance around the parish & shut up!

I know exactly what you mean. We seem to be keeping the septoria out. Shame it's dropped off the recommended list
