Getting a few fat cattle to weight now ready for York market 👌🏻

@farmerevees We had an inspection from the e/an and the things we had to put right and change to satisfy them, our neighbour never got a mention for the exact same thing. Feels plucked from thin air

@R8ORC @RoyalMail Personally I’d much rather this than the likes of national highways claiming poverty yet driving around in 73 plate pickups and cars when the roads are the state they are.

[Sam Myers @SammyersAg]

Seen some people starting with first cut already! (Very small crops of grass) short supply of forage or a case of being able to say I was first to cut my grass?

[Sam Myers @SammyersAg]

@farminginfife Hope you’ve got gps to turn down the most likely tramlines 🙈

[Sam Myers @SammyersAg]

Lots of volunteers and grass weeds to eradicate before spring drilling starts but still far too wet to travel with the sprayer! We are slowly getting there though 🤞🏻

[Sam Myers @SammyersAg]

@Catheri32273716 Thank you! It really is. Luckily I don’t have a lot of spring crops to get drilled compared to a lot of people

[Sam Myers @SammyersAg]

Another day of rain making things much worse here in North Yorkshire (again). Got to laugh or else you’ll cry

[Sam Myers @SammyersAg]

@farmerThomo Very jealous! Not even managed to spray off stubbles here to get spring barley in!

[Sam Myers @SammyersAg]

The current state of some of our land due to be drilled with spring barley! Eventually…

[Sam Myers @SammyersAg]

@kingsfordfarm I’ve been saying to friends over the past couple of weeks “give it a few months and we will be begging for rain” it’s bound to happen!

[Sam Myers @SammyersAg]

Anybody else constantly looking back on photos reminiscing of dryer times due to the current state of the weather or just me?

[Sam Myers @SammyersAg]

@MikeNeaverson A lot of crops around here (North Yorkshire) looking very desperate for a dosing of N but still can’t turn a wheel! Slowly getting there though. Glad you’ve managed to get on land!

[Sam Myers @SammyersAg]

Trying twitter before asking the agronomist, anybody any idea what could be causing this with our winter barley? I’m thinking lack of nitrogen

[Sam Myers @SammyersAg]

@farmermat1 @EliteBeef Lovely looking cattle 👍🏻

[Sam Myers @SammyersAg]

More fencing going up! Though it’s been relatively dry the past few weeks only a small amount of rain has soon changed the ground conditions.

[Sam Myers @SammyersAg]

@WadesonJulia We had a couple British blue heifers that looked identical to this! We thought they were white parks but they were AI’d by a British blue from cogent. Lovely looking animals

[Mathew Roberts @farmermat1]

Definitely farmers killing the planet 🤔

[Sam Myers @SammyersAg]

Combination drilling straight behind the plough today! The first time ever on our farm.

[Sam Myers @SammyersAg]

Clay/loam six inches deep after 54 millimetres of rain over the past week. Plenty of moisture in the top 4 inches but nearly bone dry at the bottom
