Debated getting the topper out to tidy up some thistles behind the trials but decided to get old faithful out instead. Decision verified by finding this under a thistle! Only 10 meters away from out winter bird food plot as well!

Good fairly dry conditions enabling us to graze some of the more forward cover crops. Haven’t tried autumn grazing them before but got to be worth a try!

Finally got going on our massive 22 acres of wheat! Extase doing 3.2 tones/ acre having had no artificial fertiliser, a massively reduced fungicide program with some humic and fulvic and 3000 gallons an acre of slurry.

In-calf heifers (and a few beef) enjoying some fresh herbal ley but not straying far from the hedge we left to grow up and mature. Not quite up to Howemill standard s but we’re getting there slowly!

The rye and vetch cover crop now to be whole crop! 6ft tall and counting no chemicals, grazed with sheep in January then 3000 gallons of slurry that’s it! Hopefully there’s a lucerne understory there somewhere! Inspired by Niels Corfield course! Green Farm Seeds Ltd
