    Please explain this frugal Fendt

    Help me understand these figures please. If I’m using a 728 pulling a press on ploughing, so it’s working to its maximum all day, can I assume it will be using more fuel per hour than its predecessor? Am I missing something or is the 728 using 1.5 litres an hour more than the 828.

    Protests: what do YOU want?

    I see there appears to be some momentum to protest but @delilah is right... what are YOU going to protest about? I suspect we all want something different as we are often divergent from each other even within each sector. If I was in Cardiff with a banner, it would be focused on the dash to net...
