    AB15 2 year legume fallow

    Another thing to consider is that unless you are on nice easy working and well drained land it is a bit risky trying to establish AB15 after wheat. ( I know, I've got the tee shirt )

    New Gateway

    When I asked this, although onto a C class road, a few years ago the Borough planning department said it wasn't their remit and referred me to County Council Highways. When I 'phoned them the chap I spoke to seemed a little bemused but said he would come out and have a look. On site he said...

    I did the same as you and got a bit worried when I couldn't see this years claim even though they had acknowledged receiving it then I clicked on "Apply for BPS" and this years claim is there. Presumably it doesn't move to "past claims" until after validation or payment.

    Manitou telehandler

    Cow conundrum

    They'll get down when they are ready. I once had two limmy X steers go over the side of a quarry, we ran to the edge expecting to see them dead at the bottom but instead were surprised to see them running past some equally surprised digger drivers, go up an access cut on the other side and...

    Massey-Ferguson 3060 4wd not engaging

    Look under the front right hand side of the cab, there is a wiring box that is susceptible to corrosion in the pins in the connectors Try cleaning and spraying with WD40 or similar.
