Finally making progress with spring drilling. Still a bit to go yet #howlateistoolate?

@WillComber1 Depends if you've grown a beard and got your sandals on?

[Alfie Comber @comber_alfie]

@BoycefieldFarm Ouch!

[Alfie Comber @comber_alfie]

@BoycefieldFarm That's a bit pessimistic of you bill!

@WillComber1 @SkyAgriculture They've only sent you that because of the number of Snapchats you send of the thing

@GeorgeBurrell97 @RhidianJones2 I'm currently in NZ and they've been struggling with a cold, late spring. From what I've seen so far, if they're going to keep expanding and chasing production then they are going to have to invest in more infrastructure and winter housing, particularly the dairy industry.

Great morning yesterday, catching up with Billy @BoycefieldFarm and seeing how he's progressed the farm in the 2 years since we graduated from Harper Adams.

[Alfie Comber @comber_alfie]

Pleased with how this year's crop of Interval is looking, considering the dry conditions

New herbal leys providing the goods for weaned lambs

@HM_Vinny How easy is it going to be to separate the seeds with them all being fairly similar?

[Alfie Comber @comber_alfie]

@BoycefieldFarm A few of the neighbours might start looking a bit closer over the hedge after this summer!

[Alfie Comber @comber_alfie]

@Elliott_DG Trust Berwick to still have haar while the rest of the country is crying out for moisture 😂

[Alfie Comber @comber_alfie]

Harvest underway in Northumberland at least 10 days ahead or normal!

[Alfie Comber @comber_alfie]

@BoycefieldFarm Well done Bill! You've done a lot in the last 2 years

[Alfie Comber @comber_alfie]

Drift lambing singles is going well. Proving to be an easy way of separating out lambed ewes from the original mob of 300.

[Alfie Comber @comber_alfie]

@BoycefieldFarm That's exactly what we've found the rest periods have allowed for increased grass growth and increased clover within the sward

@BoycefieldFarm And straight through the leccy fence...

Whilst being an agronomist you see some beautiful sights, this morning was an unpleasant reality check…. Whole dairy herd 200+ cows, followers and young stock lost in the last 6 months through gamma #tbtesting makes the whole #Geronimo saga seem pretty bloody insignificant!!
