Wheat North Fife 2013

In spite of the odd shower this years grain harvest is about 3 quarters complete, plenty of drying sun and wind. My gut feeling is the quality and yield will be excellent on the better side of 4 tons per acre, I've no idea of the price which can vary depending on when it is sold. For certain it will better last year.

Carse of Gowrie from North Fife

Carse of Gowrie from North Fife 9th September, evening of a largely overcast day with a blast of sunshine on the harvested fields East of Errol. Here in North Fife the wheat, barley, oats and oilseed rape harvest is about 50% reaped though we are in for a spell of rainy days delaying matters. Water saturated ground is not helping, spring sown oilseed rape has suffered from cold wet conditions and mixed maturity of seed.
