Thanks for the pictures.

Thanks - very informative

Someone got experiences with the system delivered from TT Engineering? Mounted on a Weaving GD drill would be interesting to hear about.

Guess it could be this reason: Too many has too much pressure on the wheels! In wet conditions it smears/compacts the soil over the slot and it creates low oxygen and bad germination. Just because the drill can lift the wide transport wheels free from the ground, it is not the meaning that you...

Lots of stones and flint here. After 1300 ha discs has been changed on my 6m GD. When I used a tine seeder, some farmers without many stones had up to 4x as much ha before changing, so I think it is fine. Included was 2018 where soil was totally dry and hard here - it was extreme. It can seem...

Look seriously at the number and quality of the moving parts on the drills you consider! Weaving uses very few bearings and in stead teflon bushings. They are very easy to change and they last very long time, and there are little maintenance to do. When I look at some of the others on the...

And here about the Australian results from Kirkby & Kierkegaard: SOM and nutrients https://onpasture.com/2020/02/24/soil-microbes-need-the-right-nutrients-to-do-their-job/ https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0153698

Found thesein english about nitrogen and protein levels in wheat in Denmark: https://www.allaboutfeed.net/animal-feed/raw-materials/belgian-wheat-contains-too-little-protein/ https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1161030120300757

Generally too little rotation. Pig producers are generally very conservative with tillage and have focus on WW to get most feed for the pigs. But regulations demanding 14% of rotation area with cover crops force to more spring crops. And now is there even higher demands demands for cover crops...

In this country DK have we lost >3 tons CO2/ha/y on the best soils during nitrogen restirctions for 25 years where it ended with 137 kg N/ha for winter wheat after OSR!! Nobody would buy danish wheat. Pig producers bought German wheat while danish wheat was for feeding goats or camels! So too...

Sequestring 1 t/ha Carbon need 92 kg N/ha. This is why No-till in my opinion need much more N (could for some part come from legume cover crops) Still waiting for real sceintific results showing that fertilizer is not needed while buttom line is the same or better. Many snake-oil sellers is on...

My experinces with tine drills is that they can make problems also. Because of soil flow, straw and soil can land on top of the seed row and cover the seed so germination is reduced or does not happen. So if I generally drill in 4 cm depth, then some places there will be thrown 2-3-4 cm soil...

Very rare at no-till, but in cultivated soil it happens. Here is extremely many flint stones and after only 1100 ha discs has to be renewed. But it means nothing, because less work (salary here is typically >27£/hour) with stones and saved money by no-till makes it worth.
