Harnser Posted September 7, 2012 Report Share Posted September 7, 2012 (edited) Yes ,they are drilling rape this week on the farms .It now seems to be an all the year round crop .The suger beet season will soon be upon us . I allways look foreward to shooting the beet stubble ,some of my best bags have been off the chipped beet . Allways amaze me at how big a piece of beet a pigeon can get into its crop ,they love it . Perhaps my rape shooting team can contact me in about a week or so and I will arrange a trip out to show you were the fields are . Harnser .

kyska Posted September 7, 2012 Report Share Posted September 7, 2012 We're going to be late this year, maybe too late and have to think of a quick fix. Bad times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cant hit rabbits 123 Posted September 7, 2012 Report Share Posted September 7, 2012 Rape was cut at the farm near me a couple of weeks ago, the wheat is only just being cut. Still got about a 3rd to go. Weeks away from getting anything in I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
