Been a fan, struggles with protein on our ground, but this year 13.1% but bushel wt between 70 and 73 depends on who took the sample for testing. Fungicides as agronomist advises yield mediocre but stands well. will be going to feed wheats in the future, our wheat never ticks all the boxes for mega sell ability. £20 premium if all the boxes ticked but looks like £25 deductions if not up to scratch so feed it will be..

Suits us on sand land. Early driller, T0 definitely required. This year proteins 13.1 bushels 74-76. Straws reasonable. What other milling varieties are there apart from Skyfall.
 
Again very consistent here -grown it 7 years I think now? Early yellow rust is easy to sort out, good first or second wheat, straw yield is average, this year it’s out yielding 1st wheat Graham by a ton/ha with similar inputs? It used to be cheap to grow but isn’t now unfortunately but I like it for consistency especially when you see the extase thread on here? I was threatening to change but sticking for next year again ….cheers dh
