A scarecrow in a field of rape in Cambridgeshire UK

---

Alex Campbell spreads fertiliser on a wheat crop in Cambridgeshire UK 8th April 2013. Farmers in East Anglia have been making the most of the current dry weather to catch up with spring tasks such as spraying, drilling and fertilising. Crop growth has been stunted by the prolonged cold and wet weather this spring and the wheat is much shorter than it normally is at this time of year. There are concerns that yields may be reduced this year.
