If rain doesn’t arrive by the weekend, crops will come under pressure, says Con.
While some moisture was forecast at the time of writing this, it remains to be seen if it will be enough to alleviate the dry conditions in north Kerry.
With that said, conditions have been excellent for getting work done this spring, says Con, and land is in great shape.
Con will finish planting the last of his maize this week.
He will finish planting his 72ac of maize this week. Spring cereal sowing was completed over two weeks ago.
His Gangway spring barley crops were sown at a rate of 180kg/ha, along with 336kg/ha of 10:10:20.
