James Butler of Airhill Farms makes a start at the 2022 winter barley harvest at Our Lady's Well, Co Wexford. The crop variety is KWS Joyau and it was sown in the first week of October and is grown as a feed barley. The moisture was at 18% and though James doesn't know the kph or tons per acre details yet he is happy how the crop looks and is optimistic of a good yield. / Donal O' Leary
