3 stone into the fert spreader, shallow disc, walk away, spray off next sept and back in with wheat-plenty guys thinking like that
Is there rules written somewhere?If too much of that goes on, I suspect the Dept will be keeping a close eye.....
Before the protein sub was introduced this was the biggest fear of introducing it, that people would just plant seed to draw the sub and do nothing with the crop.

I know a guy that cut them with a Ken per head on a forage harvester and pitted them . He was bet cutting them with a combine as the moisture was too high .Anyone ever mow beans and bale them for arable silage?
I would imagine the haulm would have a very poor feed value and the bean would have to be well broken up with a cracker to have any hope of an animal digesting them so I'd imagine baling them would be out of the questionAnyone ever mow beans and bale them for arable silage?

Will pre-emerge be safe to apply once plant is not breaking through the surface?
Very dangerous if sprout is close to the surface. Particularly if heavy rain follows within 24-48 hours after application.Will pre-emerge be safe to apply once plant is not breaking through the surface?
I think as time goes on it will be less and less as the idea of discing in 5 stone of beans and walk away becomes more appealing to some of the marginal land. €130 per acre is my guessWould anyone care to hazard a guess as to what the €3m protein payment will be be per Ha now that it is uncapped and there have been so few protein crops drilled?
