Vetch from late drilled over-winter cover crop: lots of rooting with roots coated in soil & sugary exudates, feeding soil microbes including N-fixing bacteria. Our 2020 work found #covercrops continued to grow into December, so hopefully we’ll see this field continue to fill out

‘Open days offer a wealth of advice for arable farmers’ - write up of this year’s Walworth open day and new developments from Jackie Craft and our own Louis Williams in the @NorthFarmerMag northernfarmer.co.uk/news/20604350.… #agronomy #harvest22 #precisionag

Results just in from the DKB trials site - our top 5 performing barleys in 2022 are Funky, SY Canyon, SY Kingston, Belfry and Caravelle. Hybrids have done well generally at the site this year, but good to see the potential of the new 2-rows coming out in Caravelle.

Thank you to all those who attended our Open Days this year, and we hope that you took something away from the site - whether plans for this year’ varieties or a new DKB cap! Thanks also to our suppliers and exhibitors who brought the days to life. Dates for 2023 to follow!
