The work on the fields for onions and potatoes of the Crop Tour 2020 is in full swing. Irrigation, spraying, nitrogen spreading, spading, milling.... At the beginning of this week, the land was busy.
The onion plots in Oeffelt and Ysselsteyn have been irrigated. Irrigation hopes that the onions will germinate and that the last clods of the top layer will be broken. In Wezup and Kimswerd, the growers have already made a round with the spray cart against the weeds. In Wezup, this is already being done on the sown onion bed and in Kimswerd, sowing is still to be done. Nitrogen was also sprinkled in Kimswerd.
The work for the potato plots started at the beginning of this week. The land has been plowed in Escharen and Someren and the ground has been dug in Appelscha. After the soil has been dug, the grower has milled the plot in Appelscha.
