## Resource

It’s a busy show this week. We chat to Drummonds’ agronomist Frank Glynn on the threat of grass weeds and Drummonds’ managing director Paul Ward on Irish grain. Wicklow farmer Tom Delahunt chats mechanical weeders and organics. We have loads of tillage news from the declining crop area to record straw chopping applications and the estimated protein payment. The public consultation on the whiskey technical file has also started. As always, we look at markets and weather. The Tillage Podcast is supported by Bayer Crop Science. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
