Jim Farquharson grew his highest-ever yield of spring barley in one of the most difficult years for spring crops, aided by a focus on crop nutrition and canopy management.
His 100ha of spring barley averaged 9.3t/ha last summer, with the top field reaching 10.5t/ha on his light chalky Dorset soils after a very wet winter followed by a severe spring drought.
A combination of variable fertiliser rates, micronutrients and bio-stimulants all helped to produce a bumper crop in a year when the farm’s normal average annual rainfall all fell in the autumn and winter.
