Is anyone using any of the new chemistry like Miravis or vimoy.

As above what is the procedure for doing so, so as to comply with all regulations etc that go with importing seed for trial/ experimental purposes? Edit. Would it vary from which country one was importing from? Thank you

Someone said today that the best smell is freshly rolled cereals in the spring. My entry would be freshly spread rotten muck in the autumn or possibly freshly mown grass. Any other thoughts?

The label says 80 - 250 L/HA which is a huge range. I've tended to go at 200 L/HA to give everything a "good wetting" but wondered what others are doing and why.

What is everyone thinking on this? I have winter triticale for AD being foraged in June, so was always planning to do a summer cover crop with legumes infront of the following wheat. There is now talk of SFI payments for this scenario which is another bonus. My initial thoughts were something...

Seeing a lot in my OSR. Are other people seeing much and are you putting an insecticide in with mid flowering spray?

I’m looking at buying a used self propelled. Probably 3000l with a 24m boom. Price wise it’ll be ideally around £30,000 but definitely no more than £50,000 so going to be well used with hours on the clock. Reading the forum it seems hydro motors are around £3000 each service exchange so 4 can...
