"Spring barley suffering near Nairn"

"Hamish Forbes has barely started cutting spring barley at Lockdhu Farm, Nairn, Morayshire, and is extremely concerned that quality is starting to fall.

“The weather has been really bad – we managed to cut a neighbour’s spring barley on Saturday (16 August), which was the first time we’d got on since the tail end of Hurricane Bertha, and now it’s raining again,” he said."
