£40/hr, call it £50 + VAT

I have a Plantman 2 264 1989. Truckmasters at Skegness told me to fill up the spout on the side with ATF until its full, there is no sight glass or dipstick. I only knew it was low because it was sluggish pulling away.

Can anyone tell me what the going rate is for hiring potato bins? Approx 60 for 6 weeks for pumpkins.

Ernest Doe Power at Ringmer will help you. 01273 812707 Some of the parts are being made locally in Hailsham I think

Still available, half an hour South of the Dartford crossing. Happy to split, just think its too useful too scrap.

Quick walk over to take the first ones off

Re-ridging asparagus beds

Asparagus is very deep rooted. Yes, in fact is a job for this week to get a RoundUp on. Fern has been already removed. Hand weeding isn't really practical on a large acreage

All the cultivations and bed making/ridging are mechanised, the harvesting is done by hand. Hand weeding in the first year or two if they've got out of hand, ground preparation pre-planting is key!

As above, am looking for one or two part worn, but usable, tyres for my MF 135. Many thanks, Stephen 07881 550751

Inter-row cultivating asparagus beds with the MF135

No, not yet!

We are looking for any quantity of pumpkins - size, shape, colour not important. Or contacts of growers who may be able to help. Many thanks,

If you're in Ross, try Cobrey Farms, they have a couple for moving staff around on.
