We've started milking on 34 units after extending our 20:40 Fullwood milking parlour. We only milked on one side for 4 days, for each side, credit to the dairy engineers and my lads for making it happen.

In the next 6 months we are due to take delivery of a guidance ready MF. A NovaTel basic receiver is pencilled in, but very cancellable. We have 2 topcon units, one is an aged Agco unit, hence the reluctance to take the Agco NovaTel. But Topcon give the impression of moving away from guidance...

Feels like the right time before ground gets too firm, the calendar says its too soon, what's the wider feeling on this?

I’ve got one of these working with a teejet matrix 570 doing auto section control. It’s not working when the main switch is one, only if one section is manually turned on as well. Doesn’t matter which one, slightly perplexing. I’ve cleaned up the connections to no avail.

What is the best way to get in and tidy things up after some furry visitors? Within a week of kicking a rat out, there’s a pair of mice. Mostly working but there’s a ready made nest under the electrical bulkhead that I want to deal with.

140 20ft Z purlins taken from Lymm last night.

Where is best place for this?

Could be disappointing, I have one light field in with stronger land waiting for dry weather. I could have drilled a month ago but soil temperatures were very low, I'm not seeing any evidence yet that we missed a trick as nothing is showing for earlier sowings. It looks very likely that some of...

Looking to add section control to a sprayer as part of a small grant claim. This will be for a second hand sprayer, on a tractor with AGCO guidance, and a Tellus Pro screen opened up for section control and variable rates. I've seen Agleader gear that may do the job, is that a decent option and...

We’ve been clearing blocked drains today and this came out. There is a kennels up the hill. Definite dog hair/faeces combo??

Must be a few farmfluencers on here? Quite a few new toys being unboxed for an international audience. What sort of inducements are being offered to very publicly switch loyalties?

I've got an AG3000 receiver that has stopped seeing satellites after an update. This is beyond the local dealer’s repair capabilities, they have kindly loaned me another to keep me going. Just looking for opinions on the best way forward. The receiver runs a steer ready isobus MF6616 through a...

Is there anyway to do group or herd medicine recording, without doing each individual animal?

Got 250 bales need moving between Claverley near Wolverhampton, Shropshire to Lymm, Cheshire. Just steady through the winter months. Cheers Will.

Brexit related I think.
