Tillage
Home-grown spring barley seed could be in short supply next year, according to Goldcrop agronomist, John Dunne.
Spring crops have a long way to go before harvest, but knowing the seed availability of the varieties may help with decisions next season.
The 2020 cereal crops are yet to be harvested, but many farmers will be planning ahead and thinking about rotations and crop areas for 2021.
Clodagh Whelan, the DAFM, stressed the importance of using a recommended list at the Irish Seed Trade Association (ISTA) seminar.
