Don't be hard on your self, looking after suckler cows on a Scottish croft was never going to make money like growing potatoes on the fens.
Impressive that they can get enough good men / women to operate all that equipment. Most around here I wouldn't trust with my wheel barrow.

Can’t beat them in these conditions to get the crop out. They have so much cleaning on them and offset intake meaning no wheelings in the row before the harvester. Having a bunker also helps a great deal.

Would be the ideal scenario but we really need to drill, once they start they keep on. Too dirty too, so drying them out atm.
