Happy Days Farming in Lincolnshire has achieved a remarkable oat yield that is double the national average.

Supported by Agrii agronomist Stuart McDowall and top-quality seed from Cope Seeds, this incredible harvest results from the perfect combination of seed variety, nutrition, and some unusually heavy rainfall.

The total area harvested for Spring Oats on the farm was 320.69 hectares, with an impressive average yield of 9.752 t/ha. The recorded yield submitted for this year’s YEN awards stands at an outstanding 11.23 t/ha.
