Bought a KUHN MDS 1132 at a farm sale. No manual or calibration book. Anyone know disc settings and openings for 3cwt/acre at 12m width? TIA

Any recommendations? Radio is kaput, are any of the suspiciously cheap ones online any good or do I need to spend £100+?

Put in 5 acres forage rape, plough, rolled, combi drill. Not a big job to roll it but is it worth it?

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...

I am currently with Pozitive energy for my import, which is now costing over £1400/ month, on an actual useage of £17.90 worth of electric. This month the Distribution fxed chargs has doubled from £12.52 per day to £25.28 per day this is for a 100kVa supply. I realise that I need to pay to...

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...

What are the advantages of burning a lot of diesel, quite slowly, running a topper, over just using a disc mower? Mower wouldnt mulch the cuttings but time would do that. Mower is faster, quite possibly more robust, leaves a tidier cut on grass which doesn’t stunt growth as much as the blunt...

RABDF Down to Earth, the regenerative livestock farming event, will be hosted at a housed cow unit for the second year in a row; cows milked 3x per day, I understand it to be "high input, high output". Not knocking confinement systems, but can this system really be regenerative? I believe that...

Just had a bill from our local tyre place, new tyre for our topper, which is what we expected but then a charge of £60 for disposal of the old tyre and the same amount for the old tube ! Now before I go in and make a fool of myself.......does anyone think they have made a mistake? The new tyre...

Looking at a new rear 3 pt link mounted 2.4m disc mower, no conditioner. Limited to 2.4m for storage reasons and a few small and difficult to access patches we do. Currently use a Kuhn PZ170 and while it makes a nice job it's too slow. Still wanting a clean cut but bigger drum mowers look...
