Maize strip tilled into grass…no glyphosate on this bit, only pendamethlin post emergence. This might just work the chopper might not enjoy it 🤷♂️

Slow out the blocks with a strip till demo …impressed with the concept agri into 4 yr old ley after 1st cut. But since when has glyphosate been like monster energy for red clover?! Not that that’s a bad thing 🤷♂️

Shameless use of social media after a long while saying nothing (sorry!) We've had a website re-vamp and there's a careers section, including a nice number working with the great team at Grosvenor Farms... grosvenor.com/careers/workin…

Interesting day @NHAG_UKandROI presenting #biomethane tractor no longer just a concept. Good fit with the #circluarfarm for net zero ag…if your bio methane if from waste feedstock

CSS advisors of twitter...tried asking NE not getting a sensible answer so why is SW5 "Enhanced Maize Management" not allowed in the same parcel as SW16/AB8/ WD3 etc? Seems ludicrous... So we can't protect the soil and enhance the habitats in the same parcel? #processoverprogress

Still signs of horrendous winter & early spring in field of triticale & vetch, did a few runs with the injector then abandoned it can see to the line, up & down like my lockdown haircut. More nutrition going on a treat with the @VogelsangUK backpac #wheretheresmucktheresmoney

Maize having a drink. This is the plant equivalent of that first cold beer on a scorching summers evening after stacking small bales to the rafters in a tin roofed Dutch barn. #ifyouknowyouknow #FarmOn #imissthepub

Please share my message to @BorisJohnson and all MPs. Tomorrow marks the start of a historic moment as the #AgricultureBill returns to the House of Commons.

So, dear Britain, we are warned. Here is a Govt MP & chair of @CommonsEFRA wanting it in the #AgricultureBill that UK doesn’t lower standards and it’s rejected. I don’t like this. Nor should anyone who wants all people well fed from high quality food. Shame on @MPGeorgeEustice
Neil Parish amendment to ban imports of low standard food defeated #AgBill

Trying some spring wholecrop options after a wet winter. Spring Triticale and Vetch mix battling on in the dry. Somethings chewing chunks out the vetch...slugs?... leaving the triticale alone. Looking forward to getting the forager into this in a few months.

Cracking evening last night bit of crop walking with the mutts. Min till maize growing away well, autumn sown bumblebird strips looking the part alongside some December drilled seed plots for multiplication.
