The Final Push for Cereals 2026, and Rain at Last After Nine Weeks Dry

The Final Days Before Harvest, Walking the Crops and the Damage Being Done to Our Land

Harvest is now just days away, and everything is coming together. In this episode we walk the crops one last time before the combines roll, checking over the wheat, the oats and the barley, weighing up the yield potential after a difficult dry spell, and allowing ourselves a little cautious optimism that it could be better than we feared. Behind the scenes the harvest team complete their health and safety and first aid training, the chaser bins and firefighting kit get their final checks, and the new fertiliser store edges closer to taking its first tanks. We also explain a big rotation decision for the year ahead, with oilseed rape coming back in, and what that could mean for the bottom line. It is not all plain sailing. We deal with yet more fly tipping and a frustrating exchange with the council, and take an honest look at the damage being done to our land by the major infrastructure projects crossing the farm. With the team buzzing and the bets on for the first day of cutting, this is another look behind the scenes of a modern farming business.

The Final Countdown to Harvest 2026, and the Fertiliser Squeeze on the Horizon

It is the final week before harvest, and there is a huge amount to get done. In this episode we get the combines and chaser bins fired up and ready, fill the tanks with fuel, welcome the harvest team back for the season, and work through the long list of jobs that has to be ticked off before the first field is cut. We also sit down for two proper deep dives. First we talk grain store hygiene with Tony, the self styled guardian of the grain, covering how to keep stored grain in top condition, the truth about smoke bombs, and the new rules on rodent control. Then John Fuller joins us to inspect the new fertiliser store and bund, and to give an honest and slightly worrying look at where the fertiliser market is heading, from the global nitrogen squeeze to the case for buying early. Elsewhere on the farm there is concrete going down, a clever trailer conversion taking shape, the pool nearing completion for a pre harvest splash, and the barley getting closer to ripe with a big heatwave on the way. From honest expert conversations to the last jobs before the combines roll, this is another look behind the scenes of a modern farming business.

Celebrating James' 50th Birthday, the Party of the Year and the Countdown to Harvest

This week we celebrate a big one, James' 50th birthday, with a party that will take some beating. We open the doors on the shed for the first time to see it transformed, with the combines lined up as the centre piece, a disco ball overhead and 450 friends ready to dance. There is food cooked over the fire pits, two bands, and the now famous tale of just how many bags of oak it really takes to cook for a crowd that size. Once the celebrations are behind us, it is back to business. We see the Trailer of Dreams in one piece after a muddy but brilliant Cereals, show you the new offices to let at the Irwin Centre, and float an idea we would love your thoughts on, ticketed harvest experiences out in the field. With the party cleared away, attention turns firmly to harvest. We get the combines fuelled and ready, welcome the harvest team back for the season, talk protein results and T3 spraying, and ask the big question, just how soon will we be cutting? From a once in a decade celebration to the first real signs of harvest, this is another look behind the scenes of a modern farming business.

Cereals 2026 at Clarksons Farm, Meeting the President of the NFU and a look at the Future of Farming

We are at Cereals 2026, and what a show it was. In this episode we take you behind the scenes of our first time exhibiting, from setting up the Trailer of Dreams late into the night to two busy days on the RAGT stand with the beer flowing and the merchandise selling fast.It was wonderful to meet so many familiar faces, and we were honoured to sit down with the President of the NFU for an honest conversation about the issues facing the industry, from long term tenancies and stamp duty to investment allowances and the future of farm support. We also got on stage to talk grain marketing, the pitfalls and the successes, and caught up with friends, sponsors and customers from right across farming.Away from the stand we got hands on with some of the most exciting innovation at the show, including the launch of a new hybrid wheat with remarkable rooting, the robotic crop scouting "robo dogs," and the data platforms that could change how we farm. All of this as the rain finally arrives after a long dry spell, with real optimism building around the crops and the harvest to come.A huge thank you to RAGT for having us, and to everyone who came to say hello. From honest industry conversations to a first look at the future of farming, this is another look behind the scenes of a modern farming business.For those interested in our new merchandise: https://pxfarms.myshopify.com/ Chapters: 0:00 Intro 0:38 Setting up the night before 1:13 Day one and talking grain marketing 2:02 Meeting the President of the NFU 6:51 Precision grain drying with Thompson Engineering 9:42 The rain at last and harvest hopes 11:32 What the grain markets are doing 15:38 Meeting our new sponsor 18:01 The world's smallest trophy 20:37 A new hybrid wheat unveiled 27:53 The robo dogs 33:45 Crop data and AI scouting 39:38 Meeting the MD of Syngenta UK 44:00 Honest talk on grain marketing 46:00 Day two wrap up and thank you P.X.

The Final Push for Cereals 2026, and Rain at Last After Nine Weeks Dry

With Cereals 2026 just days away, it is all hands on deck to get the Trailer of Dreams onto site and show ready. In this episode we lay a woodchip path to keep the mud at bay, load up the merchandise, and get the beer, the gin and the branded barrels ready for the stand. After nine weeks of dry weather we also finally get the rain we have been praying for, and we look at what almost 100mm could mean for the crops and for harvest, with the barley already changing colour. Back at base, work continues on the new fertiliser store, where we walk through the bund and containment system built to catch any spill, and tell the cautionary tale of a leak that took years to put right. We also host a group of Nuffield Global Focus scholars from around the world, hear the topics they are researching, and welcome a busy day of international visitors before everyone heads to the show. Elsewhere there is more concrete around the yard, a strong run of output from the sprayers, seed planning for next season, and a few birthday surprises along the way. From show preparation to honest talk about weather, harvest and the realities of running a modern farm, this is another look behind the scenes of a modern farming business.
