    Farmer Focus: Forage stocks get 37t/ha maize boost - Farmers Weekly (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Well, the rain has finally come, but maybe too late for some. Our grass has really taken off in the past 10 days and should be ready to cut before the end of September.

    It was great to see Lewis Hamilton recently winning his first race for Ferrari. Unfortunately, I had to listen to it on the radio as I was cutting our second cut – which is a story in itself. After 10 days of rain, the grass was starting to go past its best, but then a four-day window appeared. However, everyone else had the same idea, and our heavier ground was too wet to get on.
