There has been good progress in field work during the month of March :
Oravita :
We ‘re done with spraying all the wheat that is sprayed against weeds , fungus and pests.
The first spraying in winterbarley is also just completed.
We can by comparison with adjacent fields note, that we have made timely spraying – especially with fungicide.
The rape is sprayed, including against pollen beetles after finding them. The rape are in incipient flowering.
There is driven fertilizer for spring crops, and we started this harrowing and sowing.
Weather condition is just now suitable for seeding, as the soil temperature is now in place.
Mizil :
Here, we were somewhat skeptical with respect to time-work schedule due to the heavy snow , and water to be gone before the fields were passable, but all the winter crop is fertilized , and spraying is complete now.
Winter barley and wheat have got the fertilizer very recently, but the fields look really nice.
The rape seems compact, but have perfect plant number and low growth point. That promises well for the moment.
Videle :
In Videle came later possibilities for field work because of very vet conditions in the fields. Here is fertilizer spread are complete – with a small , waterlogged area as an exception.
Spraying in rape has been completed as in other winter crops.
In general:
At the present time, the general winter crops in good condition, and there should be a good basis for reasonable results in those – at this point in time.
We are way ahead with work in spring time compared to spring 2013.
The weather has not been against us in the same way as the previous year, while our capabilities is increased, so it has been possible to increase punctuality.
Rape and wheat in Oravita 29 March :
Rape field is 210 HA and looks like from all angles, the wheat field are 80 HA and is also uniform. (probably the two nicest fields we could find)
Kind regards
