Winter Oats

[Cork]

Isabel oat seed crop growing away after long term grass.

It’s in the land of the Deise.

Sprayed with Hurricane and Sumi Alpha in November.

Husky looking grand, condition were sticky sowing that day but no heavy rain after sowing late Oct stood to most crops

Last week. I forgot I took these pictures. What N would I want to go to on it?. Thinking 100 units or would I be pushing my luck?.

What’s the rotation?

100 units max, you’ll need two runs of PGR, the first run being pretty soon. Second run at GS32.

What PGR would I want to be putting on it?.

I’d go with Ceraide first (1.4 l/ha) then a mix of CCC & Moddus.

You can drive Husky on a bit more with N compared to Barra.

Driving on N and Oats should never be in the same sentence.

I am now an advocate of delaying the N on Oats, reducing the N on Oats, (90 units is max after FYM) and I find one well timed dose of CeCeCe @ GS32 gives me best results.

If we could have a Wheat variety that used N as efficiently as Oats we would be going somewhere. A few years ago we ended up with Oats six foot tall when the CCC was delayed. Good weather followed and the chopper was under pressure.

I know. There's still talk of cutting flat oats in the 80's here. We have always been very cautious with N on oats, less than 100 units. Last year I pushed on the Husky and it worked. A big no with Barra.

I've 30 units N on it so far. I think maybe I'll go to 90 and no more. Never grew oats before so I'm on a learning curve here. When would you go with the rest of the N?.

How long was the 30 units out when the pics were taken?
I would go another 30 units at GS31 and the last 30 units at GS33.
What variety?

About a fortnight.

What @gone says. You could apply it all now but you run the risk of reducing your grain KPH.

Quick question lads. Can take all affect oats?. The reason I ask is one field last year that had wb in it and one section in particular was almost wiped out. I see the oats in the same section are very poor. It's only a small area but I'm curious all the same.

Oats can get takeall, but it is a different form of takeall to the takeall that affects barley or wheat. It is much more likely that it is something else, maybe trace elements?

Would you have any pics of it?

I had it tested for trace elements and it came back good. It's just thin and a bit stunted in the same spot as the barley last year.

I'll get some later. My phone was slightly misplaced yesterday when I was up there.

Got that pre sowing last year and blackened with fym.

Few pictures of the affected area this is about 10 yards away and the crop is doing well. I was just curious if last year's take all had affected the oats as well as I intend to put ww in this land later this year.
