North of London | What kind of wheat?
We grow soft red, used to from soft white in the past and even a soft red biscuit wheat for a special identified market but lately have been just regular soft red.
Straw is a valuable commodity here with all the dairy farms needing straw.
Our average yield is a little over 6.3 tonne/ha which would be something like 95, 60 pound units per acre.
6.8 t/ha last year
Not sure we will hit average this year as it is quite dry and wheat is filling and just starting to lose the green colour | |
