    was thinking of sowing some of this. How much should I expect to pay per acre for land coming out of ley for this crop. With or without maps. Thanks in advance

    IMHO anything over 150 is a waste a time but some donkeys are paying up on 250 for con acre these days depending on the area. Winter rape is safer than spring but with the very hard winter weather we been havin it has hit crops hard enough.

    Honestly Winter rape in lay is a waste, ya wanna be going winter wheat, if its goo ground winter wheat again then rape and back to wheat. Boron and sulpher is important for this crop
