    Fendt profi plus or power plus

    lots can be added , after . best check with your dealer. power plus seams to be a cheaper option that is maybe more comparable to other breeds.

    Molasses vs mag rolls for cattle

    Used to mix bruised lights with HM minerals when there was an older generation with the time to pop round with the snacker , I think this was the most cost effective in product terms . Switched to pro mag for 4-5 years but the price is out of hand this time . Have been feeding free access...

    JD 6155R

    Have just been through a similar exercise , absolute madness. Priced everything, the outcome was not what I expected. Anything in stock/ on its way with a sensible dealer that wants your business is hard to stomach but new orders are beyond the realms of my understanding. Tractor PCP or similar...

    Who can tell me about running a horse lorry?

    Unless she is doing serious miles , my opinion would be don't do it. Have been there with a fairly sprightly overweight 7.5 ton . It was nothing but a money pit , it hadn't done many miles 90k but i think little use is just as bad as high mileage. Constantly in the garage and breaking down...

    Tyne tunnel toll ripoff

    Some bloody geordie that commuted through the tunnel with a ford connect must have cloned the plates of my white ford ranger , took months to sort out. Photographic evidence of my sorned ranger with green moss and empty engine bay struggled to convince the stupid feckers. always reminds me now...

    Nroso heavy handed email

    North of the border we have an annual training course run by one of the largest machinery rings. A half day course usually within 25 miles , 50 quid and bobs your uncle. Saves having to go to multiple meetings. Last year it was an online course which was even better. Is there nothing similar in...

    Power Doser

    Used one last year for click, certainly helps with the RSI! IMO- Bit of a faff to set up, requires either a compressor or there seams to be an option for using a bottle of gas as in propane or such like. No batteries or electrics to go wrong Would suggest that it would be ok for large batches...

    Scottish convergence money

    My understanding is the last bit of the bps was paid about 7-10 days ago ( have a payment letter on line) LFASS is what was received today back up to 100% (2016 level) Convergence still to come. If it was convergence cash today it's 50% of what was recieved last March.
