So, things have changed a little, organic is the old school, flat cap wearing, tweed kinda feel. Regenerative is the new kid on the block, rather edgy, slick style but promising a down to earth feel. So in the marketing eyes of the British Retail Consortium who are they going to run with? Who...
Heavy ground is ploughing up badly. Looks alot of work getting into a seedbed.
I reckon I could get a better seedbed with cultivator/disc then power harrowing twice.
Min-till maize a good idea.
Usually would have Subsoiler but I image will only smear it

How do people get on with this system please. Do they run well enough in wet conditions and do they stay in deep enough in dry hard conditions. Are there any other pitfalls to be aware of. Many thanks
Spirit Levels. What’s the point of them on Farm Machinery? Have them on Manitou & Lemken machines here. Neither anywhere accurate. Somebody could have done with one when fitting it:ROFLMAO:
What other useless features have others come across on their machines?
Hello, i’ve just gotten a 2,40 m wide disc mower without a conditioner. I’ve also gotten an old Orkel baler (the one that has an integrated forage harvester instead of a pickup, GP1202). This means that the baler can’t handle too much grass at once. By collecting the grass after the mower, i...
Just interested in opinions and experience of those that have used these systems for making a 2-3 year Italian silage ley go another 2 years.
We have usually done full conventional reseeding after the 3rd year but have just bought a 6m Wox green master with front harrow for pasture renovation...

We are looking for an experienced tractor driver to join our team mainly spreading digestate with a tractor and dribble bar.
You will be mainly working around the Worcestershire and Warwickshire area but may be needed elsewhere from time to time. We have a modern fleet of lorrys which will bring...
Been thinking of getting one of these for my one pass, I thought it would be handy for working the power harrow more deeply in cobbly bits of soil and then lift out a bit on the finer stuff, all on the move and from the tractor seat. The only thing it might affect the depth and pressure of the...

Planted our spring oats 22 April, replacing the acreage of intended Winter Beans for which, sadly, there was never an appropriate window.
But 80mm rain here in the 10 days since, including 32mmm last night, means that this field is now, yet again, very waterlogged - crop not yet emerging and...
