Final post , harvest home





Well this is the final post for this blog , we finished harvest and it yielded 2t/acre or 5t/ha of spring red wheat and it has been sold for a big premium, so highly profitable.

I have learnt many things over the 2 year period we have run this trial, mostly what you can do with a little over a short period , but we now have the field back into its rotation and it will now run in conjunction with the nearby block.

I strongly believe that the future of agriculture lies in the nutritional side and to be honest the next step would to convert a whole block to this programme , however i dont have the time or possibly the balls to do, this so i will revert back to a comfortable status quo, using "conventional chemistry " but more nutrtion,.

To be honest i really ought to the whole hog and go organic , but..........thats another story. Its a really big itch , but will i make money?

Thankyou for reading this over the 2 years if i start another blog i will post alink yours
