As I see it at the minute with traceability and all the red tape the more you can do to prove what has gone on where the better ?? Have seen adverts for spreading where gps and weighing/ auto rate are necessary but whether the rates stack up for the kit remain to be seen

I did see your 10 tonne demo in your yard when I was swapping feeder wagons about the other week 😊 a ball park figure would be interesting but I think I’d like to stay with a brand I know for my first venture into HBD spreading 👍

Good way to make use of existing kit 👍 what are you putting through the spreader ?? Would the auto rate control not increase accuracy for the likes of chicken litter and lime at low rates ?? My thinking is that if you have a variable product your average might work per load but could be a lot of...

Thankyou for that … yes the weigh cells were high on my wanted list …. Pricey though 😂 Deflector is on there … just makes sense to me with regulations, tractors gps will have to do … 650 tyres will be as wide as I think I can go due to customers on narrow lanes and protecting verges, air brakes...

Just opening myself a can of worms …Currently pricing up Horizontal Beater Spreaders and looking at the list of options any recommendations from current users ?? I’ve not got a huge amount of work for one yet but looking to expand in the area. need a relatively compact machine capable of being...

Just been quoted £57.75 for black quality wrap … snag is I have to buy 20 pallets 😱😂

You live and learn … I never knew anyone would wrap without the 50% overlap recommended by wrap manufacturers or that there was a machine to do it :) proper 6 layers of double overlapped or 4 layers with film on film is the way. Silage is worth too much to spoil 👍

Reading through this thread on a wet March morning wondering how you apply 5 layers of wrap on a bale ?? Uiu must have 4 layers on half the bale and 6 layers on the other half die to a 50% overlap … just wondering 😜

80.95 for 2000 red and 70 for 500 keep from Swan (NWF)

Red 103.4 Swan ( NWF ) this morning .. apparently dropped 6p overnight .. Certas quoted 108 then said they’d match swan 🤯

Future farm 93.48 on the app from Halso oils … 0 to 1000 litres

Seems strange Joe is normally quick to reply to messages … I contact through messenger or the Facebook page ?? @joegrills #grizzlywrapmaster

Another vote for grizzlyfab.co.uk really well made and saves the back by tipping forwards 👌

Great addition to the transmission [emoji106]Still getting used to it a bit ... there is a bit of a frustrating pause when shuttling back and forth as Tractor has to be stopped then press activation lever on back of stick before changing but might just be me [emoji23] endless control...

Took delivery of a new toy this week and now planting spuds using the gps for section control and data sharing [emoji108]not posting every day [emoji42][emoji42] here’s a couple from the week ...
