As title. Our forager costs £30 an acre. By the end of the month we will have completed second cut and so have a foraging cost of £60 and acre where the day before he will be finishing a thick first cut and might be charged out a smidge more than my 30 for twice the grass.

Hi, I need to get a set of injectors refurbished. Two of them have failed leak off test. Fails to hold common rail pressure under load. Does anyone know if a reliable firm to use? The local Denso Service centre doesn’t offer this service anymore due to problems. A local fitter suggested...

French tractors are rare machines at Irish vintage events, despite France putting a great deal of effort into creating a post-war tractor industry to serve a new generation of farmers.
Indeed, so enthusiastic was the government of France of the time...

The Royal Agricultural Society of England (RASE) and Cenex are undertaking a project to assess the potential for hydrogen to replace fossil fuels on farms.
The work will inform a wider project in which East Coast Hydrogen — a collaboration between...
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...
Someone said today that the best smell is freshly rolled cereals in the spring.
My entry would be freshly spread rotten muck in the autumn or possibly freshly mown grass.
Any other thoughts?
I‘m dreaming of treating myself to a decent roller cabinet toolbox for the workshop complete with shiny new tools and cosy little foam trays for them all to sleep in. I’ve got thousands of tools, just fed up moving them between tractors, workshop, sheds etc.
Looking for recommendations for...
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
Looking to change our pickup,we currently have a manual l200 but the gearing is quite high especially when starting on a hill with 60 spring lambs in a Gamic tri axle livestock trailer.So we are considering an Auto and I was wondering what the pros and cons are.We are looking at a Ranger,Hi Lux...
Predicted that within 5 years new cars won't be offered with a manual gearbox.
Change driven by rise (& legislation) of EVs but also by new drivers opting to learn only on automatics.
Be a bit sad IMO as it's a pleasure & a skill to match gear changes to revs but with flappy paddles, I have...

worst I've seen here for years, reckon the rain made autumn sprays short lived and broadway star seems to have done very little this spring
Rye grass and not blackgrass thankfully, but 2024 is certainly not a year where its easy to take a lot of pride in a farm
Is it just me or are others...
Has anyone had their second payment yet? Agreement started 1/11/23 and no sign as yet.
Went to a meeting last year with Sandi Kapila one of the head honchos at RPA and he made a big point about understanding the importance of regular/reliable payment windows, looked back through our agreement...
Hi hoping someone can help shed some light.
I have a 3215 telehandler that used to start on the button, now....
If its below 17c it wont start unless its sprayed with easy start, quick spray and it fires straight up, after running it for about a minute it will happily start straight back up...
Does anyone who does this fancy sharing an honest price that they charge?
I sheared a small flock of 8 ewes and 2 rams for a neighbour last year. I asked for £20 and they handed me £80.
It was clear that they thought I was cheap, and I suppose I was.
Anyway, I have a notion of advertising my...
One of the large pins on my plough won't take grease from one side, is there anything I can put down it to unblock it ? I'm NOT removing the pin, I've tried carb cleaner, brake cleaner and a grease nipple unblocker tool that you hit with a hammer(waste of time) anyone any suggestions that...
My Mf 135 engine died today. It wouldn’t restart but then I bleed it at one of the injectors and it started up pretty quickly. I was trying to figure out what had caused the airlock and then I noticed that the lower bleed nut on the injector pump was loose, loose enough that I could turn it...
