FETF50 Variable rate controller for seed drills, sprayers and fertiliser spreaders. Does anyone know for certain if this has to include the actual hardware to adjust the metering unit or can it be a variable rate controller in the cab. i.e. an Isobus screen with variable rate capability to...

I have sent an email to the enquiries team about this. I will report back on what they say in case anyone else is in a similar boat.

Thanks for that Wesley! Fair point well made. Being too clever doesn’t come naturally so might err on the side of caution!!! Will try and talk to someone over there.

Interesting! I guess I’ll have to see if I think my application would be approved. As I understand it, if your application is rejected you can’t reapply until the next round of applications is opened. So if my initial wish is rejected I can reapply next time with a more conservative application...

Hello folks, I have some questions you may be able to help with. 1. When can we apply? I have signed up for email alerts but didn't know if there was anyone on here 'in the know'? 2. Can you apply for more than one item on each grant option? I know you can apply for more than one grant in...

Just over half drilled. Of that I reckon 10% lost and 25% of the rest battling with slugs.

Thanks to @Andy26.

This one?! Still from a video. Can’t seem to load it up on here?! Shame, cause you can here her bark fairly!!!

1964 B450 working hard pulling a 12m 8500kg set of rolls. 55hp doing what would normally use 120hp. Admittedly a little slower. Have a video but can’t figure out how to upload that.

Hello folks, after a little advice if possible. I haven't done any match ploughing for a few years and that was only in the commercial classes but have an opportunity of getting my hands on a TSR102 plough. I've been hankering after a classic for a while and I know where there is a...

Morning folks, I believe there is an adaptor you can purchase that allows fire engines to connect to your sprayer to enable it to become a water tender. Am I imagining this as I can’t find anything online?! if anyone knows what I’m looking for could you post a link? A lot of fires round our...

Cousins 12.3m with 24inch breakers behind 6430 on decent rubber here. Normally fine sat at around 9kph. That’s not on any ploughing though.

http://www.hydrocut.co.uk/log-splitter Ours must be over 40 years old and still winds it’s way through anything you put in front of it. Couldn’t be simpler.

Having sold both in the past in my previous life (was in the trade for 15 years, now farming) I'd have the Performer on my own farm if I needed that sort of machine. IMO the Kuhn is better and stronger built, a lot more clearance in the machine and able to work deeper if and when necessary. A...

I'm planning to do something similar this year with aim to produce a carpet for the Sly to drill through. We found that the drill ran much cleaner through volunteer mustard last year. My theory is if I can produce a carpet for the drill to run on we will be able to drill in less than ideal...
