Mr. Matthew Macken:

Roughly 3,000 gallons to the acre. We had yields of spring barley tipping the scales on the weighbridge of 3 tonnes to the acre, which is exceptional. It was a good year and everything else but even still, that was a very good return. It matched everything else we had done previously. It matched what my father and my uncle had done in previous decades. On some recent trial digs on the soil, I have noticed a fair improvement in earthworm activity, some loosening and better aeration in the overall soil structure down through the A and B horizons.
