A preview of the Teagasc Regional Winter Crop walks
Teagasc will run a series of winter crop walks across the country from February 13 to 16. On this week’s Tillage Edge podcast, Shay Phelan, Teagasc Crops Specialist, chats about what to expect.
As many crops are patchy or have poor establishment, Shay says farmers need to be more proactive in their own crops rather than leaving all of the decisions to the person walking the crops. He explains that the winter crop walks will cover all of the main cereals, as well as oilseed rape and beans.
Additionally, the walks will provide all attendees with a blueprint around the agronomy decisions in winter crops.
