Direct drill don't plough as soil loses too moisture. Seed away never saw a crop fail yet

Would you mind if I asked you what kind of yo-yo's the above mix cost? Reason I ask is I only sought a quote for pretty much same mix today except I'm getting Kintyre instead of Aston Energy

TIA

What are you using the mix for? Grazing vs 1cut silage vs 2cut silage?

Grazing mostly and baling any surpluses that cons up.
