With the unusually high temperatures we have been pushing on with The Petit Pois. The Noroit was completed over last weekend and it's now full steam with the Waverex. The warmth and drying winds mean moisture will soon become an issue.  Late land is being levelled to conserve what moisture is there but will Easter on the horizon I expect we will get some showers. With a fair wind all the Waverex will be done this week and it will be back into Garden Peas after the Easter break. We have to be careful what we wish for but 10mm of rain would be nice. Earlies are looking good and 10 days in front of last year. Approaching 50% in the ground now.
