A lovely weeks weather allowed us to get on, Nitrogen spread on the wheats, P & K spread on the peas, and sugar beet drilled.
However, that was followed by last week. Cold, windy and at times wet! Just when I've got the oilseed rape to spray and the T1 to spray on the wheats. The rain will have helped chit the sugar beet, but there was very nearly no sugar beet as I watched the neighbours field, awaiting potato planting, start to blow the top soil. Memories of dad redrilling the beet after wind blew half the field away came flooding back.....
Really need the weather to settle down now, especially when the sugar beet pops up with all the weeds, need some still weather for spraying it. So fingers crossed this week is better and things can progress again.....
