Heartbreaking 💔

Happy Easter! It’s been a busy one here at North Farm Horton. Hope everyone’s making some progress in these difficult conditions.

Great demonstration today from @Agxeed of their autonomous tractor, big thanks to Andrew at Vantage England & Wales for showing us its capabilities.

About 30 bin bags thrown/fly tipped into a stream on land we rent, contents being the clear out from a cannabis farm. Not the first time this has happened leaving us to tidy up.

Not the best June day, but really good get together for leading UK grass seed growers and advisers. Justin Bidwell reporting on our extensive trials programme from Hants and Dorset sites. As ever, interesting and relevant to all levy paying seed producers. Much more to come.

Enjoying Niab trials at Sutton Scotney today. So important to receive impartial validated trials results and advice

Knee high by the 4th July SAMCO System

Grain maize delivery. Give me a message if you are looking for any, bulk, tipped, blown, half tonne and tonne bags, even 20 kg bags. Split or whole. Can blend. Pheasants, partridge, cattle, sheep, poultry.

Grain maize tramline desiccation trial. What will be the positives and the negatives?

Grain maize 2024 done!

Yesterday, British #Farmers donated 6.6 tonnes of fresh food, which = over 15k meals for Londoners facing #foodpoverty. #CityHarvest CEO, Calcutt: “We were honoured to ensure every donation was safely received + handled with as much care as the time + skill spent producing it."

Second pass through the sunflowers today with the hoe. Really pleased how they’re looking.

Sunflowers now about 5 feet tall, and taller than the children! They’ve been loving this weather
