What a difference a year makes; sowing the Goldcrop spring barley plots at Shanagarry today with the assistance of Joe Millerick . I cannot remember when I last saw proper dust in March!!! 🌾🌞🌾

Winter Barley 2024: Early Planting Pays Off 🌾 This season, winter barley crops are thriving due to favourable autumn conditions and early planting, as seen in Goldcrop’s Shanagarry trial site. With BYDV-tolerant varieties enabling earlier sowing, timely nitrogen application will be key for maintaining strong crop health and yields.

LG Armada WOSR getting its first dose of N+S this year. Growth will commence soon and I want it growing away from the pigeons. Good strong plants and nicely distributed 🌱🌞 Limagrain UK Ltd Ron Granger Florentina Badiu Kurtis Scarboro Goldcrop

This weather is really great for barley & wheat. Good for soil too with the top surface being broken down by ice expansion. Integral & Littoral sitting beside each other. Both 6 row BYDV tolerant varieties, both bred by Secobra in northern France. Littoral is a bit more prostrate and less leafy than Integral in its growth habit. It would be autumn 26 before it would be eligible for the Recommended list but I really like it based on what I’ve seen from it in 2023 & 24. It’s a long long time since I’ve seen a variety with such good resistance to straw breakdown and also Ramularia. Fingers crossed. SECOBRA RECHERCHES Tom Barker Goldcrop
