    36m tramlines in spuds

    If could aim separator discharge in right place it could be placed in wheeling leaving a hard base possibly, so help even more? Bit of thought like u say but always happy to bounce ideas or if got questions at any point as I’m sure many other growers here are that do similar

    36m tramlines in spuds

    so your sprayer wheel isn’t always squashing side beds etc if no tram lines we found in wet years the bed under sprayer is 40-50% down each bed to side is 15-20% down so a lot of lost yield especially on smaller boom widths and let’s not mention the grief on harvester lifting and then an hour...

    36m tramlines in spuds

    We did adapt a cultivator to level the wheel track but in the end we used the sprayer at times due to timeliness. Used to adjust front and rear track differently as we still hafe rowcrops due to onions. So run front axle at 72inch to hug middle bed then pushed rear axle out wider to help level...

    36m tramlines in spuds

    We jump the three over 3.06m and then run a single bed machine down that 3m track so in effect you are left with 2 gaps of 0.6m either side of a single bed for a wheeling not a track I’m not a fan of dead beds or tracks in field due to wasted land and on irrigated land they often turn to wet...

    36m tramlines in spuds

    No special kit just guidance. Headlands are 9 beds or 18 rows then a 4m track for sprayer so no turning over beds etc lost ground yes but in a wet year you can level it and smooth it out. For field work to tram line there is a standard 18 beds (36rows) between tram lines, then we jump our triple...

    sumo trio 3

    Run a Fendt 724 240hp on a 3m trio on good to heavy silt loam and 10 inches will easily make it cough 5-8kph. But if 6+ inches 180hp will manage it but don’t underestimate weight 1600kg will just keep nose down at times we also run wheels weights.
