Genghis W.Wheat (TWYFORD) is the
highest yielding non fungicide treated
at 3.6t/ac in 4 years NIAB trials |
|
| |
Versus 3.1t untreated Shamrock and Claire. |
Treated yields ( with Strobilins) are 10-15%
higher with a 1 / 2 spray program |
|
| |
Genghis Shamrock & Claire are all available at
similar prices ~£300/t - but place orders early. |

Cost Effective Storage & processing: in order of cost & effectiveness |
|
|
| |
One pass dry at £8-12.50 to rmove 5% moisture to a
safe 14-16% Moisture for year round storage |
|
| |
On Floor Low Volume Ventilation: 18% Moisture or less blown by perforated "Drainage
Pipe" + roll £2.50 |
|
| |
Urea Treatment £7 + rolling - adds protein - roller
placed on the high steel frame - approx £2.50 incl dust |
|
| |
Propcorn is to expensive
versus urea treatment, but is a feedstuff, but poor application can feed
spoilage moulds |
|
| |
Harvest Caustic £8/t - 25-50kg water and 30kg
Caustic - only suitable for 6kg level
of wheat ie 4 rolled 2 caustic |
|
| |
Crimping and chemical - 12-23/t - plenty of opportunity to get ripped of
on chemical cost |
