worst I've seen here for years, reckon the rain made autumn sprays short lived and broadway star seems to have done very little this spring
Rye grass and not blackgrass thankfully, but 2024 is certainly not a year where its easy to take a lot of pride in a farm
Is it just me or are others...
Sprayed T1 on my wheat and it has scorched like hell mainly older leaf’s .Overlaps look terrible
vimoy + Kestrel + 1ltr ccc + 0.15 moddus mix
any ideas?
So dis heartening and depressing when you see it 🤦🏻♂️
like the title says is axial hard on winter barley? wondering if it slows it down or causes phyto like dff
once i sprayed puma on a section and it killed the barley completely roundup styles lol
I have a poor piece of wheat with a few holes, and a number of hare wheelings. I would quite like to spin something on to hopefully fill in some gaps, and maintain some soil structure once the crop has had an application of broadway star. Considered a clover but was looking into any other...
With apologies to those struggling to get their first N on
My wheat got 50gk N+S03 3 weeks ago next Tuesday.
Walking round with the agronomist yesterday and we would like to get some BWS on to tackle some particularly nasty brome. The dilemna being, do I top the N up first or herbicide.
My gut...
Hi everyone,
Here are the latest collective deals. Any questions feel free to ask away or drop me a DM.
We're also trying to gauge interest of what other collective deals we should run, if you think we should run a particular deal let me know below.
We have had a couple of members suggest a...
Arable farmers need to rethink herbicide strategies following 2024’s wet start
With some fields still under water following widespread flooding in January, farmers will need a robust herbicide plan in place as they battle to catch up this spring.
A wet autumn delayed drilling of many winter...

Hundreds of farmers, contractors and agronomists have indicated that brome is a growing threat in the battle against grassweeds in UK arable fields.
New data from a Corteva Agriscience survey shows that 80% of respondents have...

Hundreds of farmers, contractors and agronomists have indicated that brome is a growing threat in the battle against grassweeds in UK arable fields.

I have a lot of groundsel come through my autumn herbicide in winter wheat.
Should I be thinking about controlling now or waiting until early spring when warmer?
I was thinking either lector (straight florasulam) or cameo (tribenuron) would anyone have any suggestions which may work best...
Thinking about starting drilling wheat next week. This early drilled stuff is going in mainly after early potatoes and some overwintered stubble that has been ploughed and pressed. We have subsoiled and disc & pressed after the potatoes. All seedbeds are really good and the nice bit of rain has...
New from Sipcam available as blackbird amongst other names. BLW contact for autumn use in cereals. Active previously available on potatoes.
Only aware of it due to ad in F guide. Anyone seen any trials or prices? Any spud growers or agronomists care to comment. Non label claim of activity...
Morning
Presumably most are still planning on planting wheat in the next month or so.
With current prices and profitability what’s everyone’s thoughts on pre em choices and rates ?
cheers
As far as I understand the rules for the above. I am entitled to spin some beans into my winter barley at drilling, leave them in until the spring, and claim for the £129/hectare.
Has anyone clarified this with the higher powers by any chance? It seems like a no brainer
What have I done wrong? Sprayed 1l/ha of oskar/foxtrot at 200l/ha volume in winter wheat at gs 37 on Monday 8th of May.The wild oats have shrugged it off since and growing away. I can only assume I should have sprayed at 1.2l/ha. Didn't want to go earlier as I wanted to get any spring wild oats...
02.20 onwards
That's why ELMS is a sh!tfest.
Not because of the Goldsmiths, or Carrie, or Packham, or the Moonbat, or Craig Bennett, or Tony Juniper.
Because of farmers putting it into the head of @Janet Hughes Defra that there are 'good' and 'bad' ways of farming.
That's why countless...
