The Golden Valley

I had to pull over the car on the commute home to get these pictures. I just can't believe how much wheat is being grown at the moment - it really is an odd and rather beautiful sight - mile upon mile of it. I guess that is why they call this area The Golden Valley :-)

Oh and this must be for sugar puffs, and puffed wheat!

Has there been serious crop damage with all the weather Uk has been getting?

That's a wonderful view Sid.

Chris - I havent noticed any damage. Lastyear there were a lot of low lying fields flooded. I know that too much humidity can cause fungal attack of wheat, but again I havent noticed any. I'm worried that my onions are going to start to rot :-(
