Good video! I just finished walking 22 acres of winter wheat to see if its worth keeping or switch it to corn. What is the growth regulator you are using called?

Thanks - gez i heard things were bad ur neck of the woods - what has caused you to rethink on the 22 acres? Its called Holdup - (ccc or chloremquat?) Put it on at half rate early to make it tiller then put the rest on with the T1 spray. With winter barley it goes on full rate with the first fungicide. Will soon be adding it at half rate (1.2l/ha) to spring barley to make it tiller.

The snow all disappeared in early march and we still got quite a bit of cold weather after that, it just killed it off. Thanks for the info, over here cerals are not managed nearly as intensively as you do but there is growing interest in doing so. How many pounds of urea would you put on in the growing season and how many applications would you use? Thanks again, hope all is going well over there. We're just getting on the land today.

Wheat would get about 620Kg/ha of 27N plus PK as required - determined from yearly soil samples. That would go on in two to 3 splits depending on growth stages. 1st app is 185.25Kg/hs (1.5cwt/acre) tillering

2nd - 247 Kg/ha (2cwt/acre) - just before first node

3rd - 123.5 Kg/ha (1cwt/acre) Flag leaf.

Four spray applications, namely To, T1, T2 T3, "nd application of fert went on last week, T1 due to go on this week, or as close to the 1st May as possible. Hope the work is going well for you.

[ford7600]

eh rite - I would love to see that - a 135 out climb a 5000, could be a first time for everything? lol. 3000 v a 390 aint realy a fair comparison but wouldnt be surprised by the result. 390 hav better engines than the 390t. 390t is just a 375 engine with a turbo.

eh run while you can.... lol
