Ultrastu Posted May 15, 2018 Report Share Posted May 15, 2018 It seams like field after field of wheat and rape this year round my way . Ive only seen 3 barley fileds so far .and i have permission on 2 of them ? My farmer always plants at least 1 bean field. But they never attract pige or crows so i generally ignor it as a crop .

The pigeons in your area must have different tastes Ultrastu, last friday my son shot 240 pigeons over beans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trouble is, it seems most farmers are growing more. This could affect bag sizes at harvest time. We shall see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
