Beautiful conditions and views last week as Harry (on his day off) and I, put the last wheat in after potatoes at Gordon. Armchair ride on worked ground but still using the Mzuri. A rare thing for now working with the next generation but a great pleasure. @ValtraGlobal

Beans cut yesterday ending #harvest26 and already its now Hexton wheat. Sown today, variable rate, one pass with the Mzuri protil. Lovely soil conditions with lots of tilth remaining in the top layer where we need it. #soilhealth #pulses #wheat #mzuri

A bit of high speed winter cover crop sowing yesterday as I waited for the chicken muck to be spead ahead of my osr. Moving only 22% of the ground helps retain moisture, soil structure, and helps keep carbon in the soil where we need it. @mydirectdriller #covercrops #regen

Carrington peas cut at the weekend. Haulm baled for some lucky cattle to eat. Another good looking crop with a nice clean sample, but average yields. #harvest26 @CLAAS_UK @ValtraOficial @ValtraGlobal @BaileyTrailer

Big blue sky this morning. Straw on the move as I make the most of the amazing weather. Clearing fields in perfect conditions makes a huge difference when you sow the next crop 1 pass. OSR and peas are not far away, that should change the weather🫣 @CLAAS_UK @mydirectdriller

Pre Cereals26 I finished the spraying on all the wheat at home. This @KWSUKLtd Zealum is looking great. The gate is shut, so it's up to the weather now. Sunshine, please! @mydirectdriller @NFUStweets @ValtraOficial @ValtraGlobal

My new drill heading down to @CerealsEvent @DiddlySquatFarm its on the Mzuri stand with the impressive 4 meter full spec machine. I will be helping on the stand if you have practical farming questions you would like answered, keep them simple, please.#striptill @mydirectdriller

Great first day out with my new, first in the UK, Mzuri protil sowing cover crop into last year's cover for a customer. Thanks to Wojciech for helping set up the drill & Mark from @mydirectdriller for making the trip to record it all. It made a great job in testing conditions.

Direct drilled Carrington peas coming on nicely this cold spring. Its 10ish years since I last had peas, so I thought I would take the risk again (wet harvest imminent) I love growing pulses, so I hope the @claas convio can pick them up easily #whatcouldgowrong

😳my Craft barley for @SimpsonsMalt seems to think I best get my combine warmed up. It's on track for a July 14th Harvest. It seems early, but it was the 11th last year. Looking clean but not the thickest, we will see how it goes. Last spray and shut the gate. @NFUStweets

A whole morning, well spent. Prepping qthe drill for an inspection and phytosanitary certificate before it goes to its new home. Big week on the cards if all goes to plan. SASA, SGRPID and UK customs have all been really helpful and have made this learning process manageable.

During some contract barley sowing in Ancrum I managed to catch my @MNDoddie5 tractor and the fantastic looking bus in the same picture. Nice wave from one of the kids on it kept me cheerful in the sunshine.

Diablo spring barley for @SimpsonsMalt going in today. Too early? 🤷‍♂️time will tell. Nice hailstone shower tonight, which hopefully isnt an omen. Ground conditions were good and band sown fertiliser will get it of to a good start. #mzurisown @mydirectdriller @NFUStweets

Off to a good start. Beans going into barley stubble. Conditions are very good, and ground is breaking down in to a nice tilth. Front leg in 6" coulter 2.5" and only around 12L /Ha of expensive fuel. Roll & pre em next @mydirectdriller #striptill #sustainablefarming @NFUStweets

Massive thank you to Mzuri World Poland for taking us to their new factory. Huge investment in manufacturing, design, build quality and innovation. Thanks to Wojciech and Lukas for showing us around and looking after us so well. Amazing, inspiring trip. Coming to the UK soon.

We installed our @Enduramaxx rainwater harvester tank from @AgriiUK this weekend, that stopped the rain falling. Hoping to fill the sprayer from it this year to save some metered water. Fits perfectly between the two sheds and hopefully that will keep it topped up. @NFUStweets

After our purchase of the Valtra kit at LAMMA from UTV products, everything will look like it's done in daylight. Worklights were easy to fit, headlights, and sidelights Harry wired in. We are now full power LED on the @ValtraGlobal N175D. Great worklights are always a good idea.
