Fen Peas

Today the Boys were in the yard making the final preparations before we set off around the County of Lincolnshire within the next week. Will it be before or after the weekend, who knows! The jury is still out but we are sampling and the peas are moving about 2 to 3 points a day, but I expect this to build as the week goes on. You will see from the photograph that we are continuing to get a lot of "rogue" plants in our crops of peas. Whilst this will not dramatically affect the yield something does need to be done to clean up some of these varieties, before the contamination worsens. The rogues present, will mature after the bulk of the field, but if it was the other way round it would not be good.
