#Hedgelaying done for the season, only a short 50m stretch, mainly field maple and blackthorn, hazel binders coppiced from the wood, the veteran #oak behind is a beauty! 🌳

@ArableEvent wheat variety plots being harvested today, some good yield differences between varieties and solid spec weights across the board @SyngentaCropsUK

[Joe Bagshaw @westerncropkid]

@OpenreachHelp we have a very slack phone line hanging across the field about 10ft from the ground, not helpful for getting tractors and machinery under, best way to get it sorted?

@Mallytrally Challenger main crop and ramos as 2nd earlies

[Joe Bagshaw @westerncropkid]

Same spot just over 12 months difference, think I got a bit carried away with the #vegpatch, serious crops of spuds and carrots 🥔🥕

Freshly fledged blue tits, bit windy for first day out with wings!

Lovely afternoon to be out and about at the Banbury trial site, wheat, barley, oats, linseed and beans have established well, plenty of yellow rust in a number of varieties to! @SyngentaCropsUK

Delaying drilling is a very important piece in the ryegrass IPM puzzle, serious flush which has been sprayed off and will be drilled later in the week to compare against the mid September drill timing reducing pressure on herbicides @SyngentaCropsUK

[Joe Bagshaw @westerncropkid]

@cropresearchse1 @SyngentaCropsUK 3 days after it had been drilled and rolled, rolled it a second time after I spun the clover on

[Joe Bagshaw @westerncropkid]

Spring barley trials bring harvested today, undersown with a white clover #livingmulch, sitona weevil has been busy notching the clover but it has established well, next come the 🐑 🐑 pre winter wheat @SyngentaCropsUK
