Apologies if it’s been discussed before (think it has but the search facility can’t find it) but as a disc machine in dry to moist conditions what do people think? Obviously if it’s wet then a tube is needed but as a chitting tool and potential cover crop seeder direct into stubble what do people think?
Been using a carrier and for us (not including this year as it’s so dry) it doesn’t move all the soil so the 4 rows of discs in a rapid should? And then it’s got a decent tyre packer to consolidate with the rear Harrow lifted up. I’m thinking of chopping our carrier in against a used one of similar value. I can’t see much point but we could take the hopper off to lighten it up and put on a stocks turbojet we’ve got sat in the workshop doing nothing.
