Blankney Farm Update – 20 December 2024

Our winter harvest of sugar beet continues – we’re now approaching 60% lifted. Our yields remain good and over 30% of the contract has been delivered.

We continue to load out wheat to Kerry’s at Gainsborough and we are busy emptying our grain stores at Mickleholme Farm for the last time.

We have been busy with base fertiliser work for our spring cropping and will soon start winter ploughing, after cover crops, for the early establishment of our vining peas.

Winter wheat have all been established successfully and we’re now drilling spring barley, with 17% of our area drilled.
