36% TS - weiter als gedacht. Denke 50er Reihe macht keinen großen Unterschied. Muss im Frühjahr einfach zügig dicht machen.

Weed control with cropping.

One time herbicide, interesting to see where are no corn plants, we have weeds, due too more light on the ground

[Nicolas Graf @Nico_Graf3]

Farming - living with nature and adapt on current situations!
And not by senseless bureaucracy and regulations.

Governmental representatives even advice young people to not run a farm … better stay in the industry. What’s wrong here ?

@SebiVogler Die gleiche Frage hab ich mir auch gestellt 😃

[Nicolas Graf @Nico_Graf3]

Summer barley with interseeded rye Gras, looks quite promising also in dry conditions.

[John Deere USA @JohnDeere]

betting she reminds you of someone…

[Nicolas Graf @Nico_Graf3]

@FWinkelhofer @NevertillUli Welche Mischung war das ? Gefällt mir gut!

[Nicolas Graf @Nico_Graf3]

@Peddarfarming Covers terminated ? Or just by rolling over ?

[Nicolas Graf @Nico_Graf3]

@SebiVogler Rein biologische entschwefelung ?

[Nicolas Graf @Nico_Graf3]

@TimBarndon What are the Green strips ? Volunteer wheat ?

[Nicolas Graf @Nico_Graf3]

@SouthFrodfarmer We had rye like this last year, same yield as the not grazed ones, better cover crop afterwards. So no worries!

[Nicolas Graf @Nico_Graf3]

@tierney1981_t Looks very good. How do you deal with it to get space for the next crop ? What did you put in the mix ?

[Nicolas Graf @Nico_Graf3]

@farmerdoug93 Would be also my question how to kill the rye.

[Nicolas Graf @Nico_Graf3]

@arableventures When did you seed, if field looks like this on 08. of October? Not concerned that crop gets damaged when it’s colder by frost?

[Nicolas Graf @Nico_Graf3]

@MichlReber Abhängig vom Bestand und Temperatur. Habe verschiedene Versuche gefahren von 8-15 km/h, auch abhängig vom Bestand. Im Schnitt 12 km/h, gutes Verhältnis zwischen Flächenleistung und abknicken der Pflanzen, wenn schneller überrollt man meist nur, aber geht auch.

[Nicolas Graf @Nico_Graf3]

Rolling cover crops in the frost, hope there is no need to use an herbicide. 1,5m tall. Güttler is doing a pretty nice job and opening up the stem, that the next frost can get in.

[Nicolas Graf @Nico_Graf3]

@robbycoleman1 Pretty good! Can not say if soil is sticking, cause all was frozen. Had some wet spots. If you can drive on speed, 10 km/h and above i haven’t seen an issue.

[Nicolas Graf @Nico_Graf3]

@ArableF No grass in the mix, because of that reason, -3 is not cold enough for that. And have to be more aggressive.

[Nicolas Graf @Nico_Graf3]

@SebiVogler Je nachdem. Morgen zwischen 06:00 und 08:00 Uhr zieht es nochmal an bis -3/-4. -3 solltest schon haben, auch wegen der Befahrbarkeit.

[Nicolas Graf @Nico_Graf3]

@SouthFrodfarmer Was there much Frost After Rolling in those 3 weeks ?
