The lines it leaves behind don’t follow the direction of the tractor or plough.
Never seen it before, but guess that’s the effect of a spiral press.

Not much exciting today, took the 6420 back first just this morning.
Then we had the “owl man” came and put some boxes up, Big box for barn owls.
Kestrel box for our resident kestrel
And he’s bringing a small owl box next week for our resident tawny owl.
Got some happy birdies round our yard

Karma has struck!!!!
Five minutes after that picture was taken the front axle coupling on my tractor disintegrated and I had to be carried back to the yard.

He is 7 now so not that old really I would say he’s a bit earlier than normal by a few weeks or are we a few weeks behind
never found the pair like that before stuck in the ground

It doesn't look as though you are too far from base. Anyway sand land should be drilled up by now. My beet are up!

@Poncherello1976 There are no doubt serious laws against spraying a low concentration of copper sulphate on the roof that would do a brilliant job - so whilst you are up there just leave some coper foil well attached to the ridge - it won't be a problem in future,

That's what they do. Drop them every spring and grow a new bigger set ready for the autumn rut.

You could have at least told him it happens if they don’t eat enough vegetables or because the stag turned round too quickly in a strong wind.
Heck, he might even have climbed up a steel building, missed his footing and fallen 25’ with only that minor scrape of lost antlers to worry about.

Luckily I was just at the back of the yard, it made a clatter and a bang so I stoped and couldn't see anything so thought I'd be best to get out of the furrow as I eased out the axle locked solid. The back uj has disintegrated, I'm just glad it didn't happen when I was going down the road.
There's very few beet drilled around here, were not on the pure sand like yours...atleast that's my excuse.

Don't worry, we got it in the workshop and its now just about ready to slide the whole axle out from underneath, if we can get the parts tomorrow morning we should be up and running again by dinner time.OOPS

Few pictures from past week or two
Shortage of straw means my two year old stack has become sought after
Wheeled whipple tree drawbar in for repair
Bit stronger now
Making some new axles for it from an old bale sledge, uncle does the welding
Wet weather means we had time to put the drawbar on the vibroflex
Altering the track setting and trial fitting the rowcrops for when it finally dries up
and some delightful children decided it would be fun to do this

Just to provide some balance from the belief that it's all big gear & vast areas over here
15 ha on the way back home. Tonne bulka bag of seed, no lifting gear so just cut the bag & shovelled it into the auger. Only 1 bag, so wasn't too bad
Still doesn't look like it will ever rain again, still in the mid 30's C as well
There is going to be a LOT of pain if we miss out on a winter crop this yr
