Explaining his idea to workers at his River Haven estate, Noel said that in a study conducted half a century ago, 'The rice field which had the music played in it, the yield increased between 25 and 60 per cent'. But with the threat of frost on his crops, he added: 'It's a strange business to be involved in. I wouldn't recommend it if you want to make money.' Handy if you fancy a tipple in the evenings, mind.
