We have just changed from GK to Geofolia, It’s cheaper then GK and a lot more user friendly. As part of the package we also each have an app which you can do everything on from creating work plans to recording jobs or checking stocks as long as there up-to date!!! most of us tend to have smart...

We have just taken 2% moisture out 16.7-14.7 with Lishman rh controller 10 foot high with pedestals 4m apart 3m from walls, 3 phase fans sucking. Not sure if this was just luck as have never tried to dry grain with pedestals only ever cool, IMO the only way to dry would be with a RH controller...

We had David Purdy come out about a boot problem we are having, we also have problems with the shaft seizing up he recommends JD high load grease it’s not cheap but won’t break the bank having a couple of cartridges for that job. We are also currently fitting the new pro series boot to our drill...

Have you used any avadex as part of your pre-ems? We have found that in a direct drill situation avadex has worked brilliant along side other popular pre-ems

Anyone on here using a flow/blockage monitor on there drill for liquid Fert systems? We run a JD 750a and the Fert system is well filtered but on low rates in the autumn do get the occasional blockage I know there are systems out there but was wondering how good they are.

Had a similar problem with mine, ended up being a bad connection on the plug under the cab in between the lights. Ended up putting a new plug on as most terminals had some corrosion

If that's in the row that's plenty surely, say your drill covers 20% of land that's 75kg of N in the row and at 60% efficacy that will still give you plenty of N. As long as that was 15kg/ha of N

I have to agree, things are getting silly, we had a micro toxins test done last year as we do every year and it came back as 0 first load of milling wheat went got held as they couldn't believe it was 0, after a bit of back and too they tipped it, from then on every load that left the farm I put...

Looks like chem damage to me, did you put any SU's with that mix?

Split it 60/40, a.n will be broken down quickly with dews and available, go now with 60% and just before growth stage 32 with 40%, IMO if you chuck it all on now a lot will go into growing straw, are you flat rate or V.R?

In the drill settings where you can adjust min an max fan speed there is a small box if you tap that you get a couple of symbols up you want the zigzag line! It should then have a TC at the bottom of your main drill screen

Have you got the task controller on?
