Uk Rape Growers are Under Performing!
Deloitte top 25% Rape growers average yield is
3.29 t/ha (1.3 t/acre).
Average German yield is 4.2 t/ha (1.7 t/acre).
We cannot afford to accept this with higher
fuel costs, higher labour rates, busier harvests
and subsidies changing.
We must not consider Rape a break crop - it
has to stand on it's own two feet.
We have to maximize yields and control
production costs.
