Drilling cover crop




I have at last made my mind up what to do next year , i originally had decided that the Trefoil would be my cover crop , but it has the nasty habit of being eaten by every thing that moves , be it Fleebeetle, slugs and now pigeons, at least they are not on the rape.

If the trefoil had looked like this thicker establishment i would have left it

but it was too thin.

Now i have decided to sow winter oats and then spray it off in spring and drill with spring wheat possibly Zircon

Drilling oats , please take no notice of tractor 8270R , it was the only one in yard.

New Season
