I thought Minette had been telling us since 2016 what a good idea Brexit was?
I thought I was on top of hedges last year but alas no! If you have a length of hedge where you have management control of both sides. For example against a grass field or road. In the land use section for that field do you have to enter the figure as both BF 11 half hedge and BF 12 adjacent...
Hi, Back in sunny July the combine caught a low hanging telecom wire. The line was serving the house where I live. I have now been presented with an invoice for £550 plus VAT.for the repair. Presumably telecom wires should be at a minimum height? The combine with the tank open is 4.8m high...

With the new 10m buffer does using Ferric Phosphate pellets on the whole field instead of metaldehyde become a viable solution. When I have previously used sluxx I found it a quality pellet. How do ironmax pro and sluxx compare for price and quality? What is everyone's favourite metaldehyde...
I used the low disturbance points for the first time last year in extremely dry conditions and was impressed with significantly better finish due to dry lumps not being brought to the surface. The only downside was high levels of wear. Are there any points on the market that combine the low...
The sli on my Sanderson TL7 does everything it should do apart from make a audible alarm when it gets to the red lights. Can I mend this or does it need a new box or could I send it to David King?

I was due to be submitting an application soon for a scheme to replace my current HLS scheme with a start date of Jan 2017. It is currently an important part of my business but Brexit add rather a large amount of uncertainty. What are peoples opinions on this subject. I know that the answer is...
I'm in the process of ordering wearing metal for the summer. Currently I tend to buy tungsten points from either Spaldings or Pan Anglia. I find they wear reasonably well, make setting up the machine easier as they maintain their length and hence depth and reduce the downtime in constantly...
