After people’s thoughts and experiences on making the switch from min tilling to direct drilling.
Currently running a sumo followed by a Kuhn speedliner (similar to horsch/vaderstad) and growing very good crops. Using plenty of muck in various forms and got a good rotation of crops. All straw except rape is baled for livestock.
We are in Lancashire, not the driest place in the country, and think we can make a success of moving over to dd but at what cost in that period?
Should we maybe have a spell strip tilling for a few years or just jump in at the deep end?
