why is it done incase a bad winter ruins them ? 

I think it could be to do with variable climate causing issues, like the other year when the oil seed rape come into flower months before it was supposed to, I've noticed different plantings on the land from a few decades ago, even see Linseed and a field of corn on the cob up here in Northumberland over last few years

organic or chemical it’s all the same once the plant has used it mate aint it i wouldnt get hung up on it but organic if you can why wouldnt you 

i always get eggs from. free range organic honesty box they are better i think aswell

For the last few years I’ve bred my own layers, they are Black Leghorn x Bovan Goldline; both prolific layers and I think I’ve hit on some hybrid vigour and they lay huge eggs every day. 
I’ve some second generation and they are laying slightly less, smaller eggs ?

Can this be correlated to lurcher breeding ?

Im also breeding some gamefowl that are massively inbred, it will be interesting to see if they are as good as the original stock .

Cheers.

I honestly don’t know mate, I’m only talking chickens , the first cross seem better producers than the parents; the second cross not as good, but that’s only egg production.

Maybe i over think things ?

Winter wheat needs a cold snap to get the best out of it, an produces better wheat that had a higher protein content so can be used to make stuff like pasta an bread an stuff, spring wheat is grown quicker sn not as high in protein so used to make stuff like pastry an cakes, also crop rotation and other things come into it

So is it the bull or the saluki that gives the modern day coursing bred the staying power and tenacity, or did they both add to the breed ?
