Hi
I think there is a tube of some sorts thats gives the levelling signal to the system. Was told this could play up and maybe the place to start looking.
Never had any problems with mine though...
I did put it on with the Vaderstad Box drill. Lowered it just so the metering wheel would spin. It worked fairly well I guess.
The only problem is lack of moisture. We had maybe 10mm of rain. I cant see anything growing.
This year is worse than 2018 I think. I estimate an average yield about...
Thanks for all the inputs. Since I don't own a small seed spreader I will borrow my friends Vaderstad Rapid box drill with a small seed box on the back. I guess the back tyres will push the seed a bit into the ground. Think I can run it without the seed boots in the ground.
Worried the avatar...
Hi
This 6 row is early, but yields quite well. We had a very late spring this year. I think 6 row is a touch better on less ideal soils compared to 2 row?
We also have later 6 row varieties which yields about the same as 2 row.
Yes, its just for feed.
Hello
I want to establish clover in a field with early stage 6 row spring barley which I drilled with the Avatar.
What is the best option here? My regen agronomist suggested I should try to drill in between the rows. I did drill with gps, but my ground is hilly so I dont think it would work...
I was quoted 420USD FOB china. Problem is though, the urea I was quoted contains 0.89% biuret. Here in Norway you are not allowed to import urea containing more than 0.5% biuret.
I think they can fit about 15 tons in a 20ft'er. I'll test one load I think, if the price is right. Over here they charge about 1000£ a ton. Its crazy.
I dont have a quote yet, but will be supprised if its above 400USD/ton. I guess shipping to Norway is more expensive compared to UK. 20ft container is now 2k USD, 40ft is 3k USD. That is from Chinese port to my yard.
I'll let you know the price.
Thanks for your reply.
Yes, it depends on the CC I guess. Like White Clover, should be fine in the spring.
Mounting a seeder on a sprayer is not a bad idea. I just checked the APV site, but their seeders seems to be limited to 12m.
Hello
I saw the other day a new set of rolls fitted with an APV air seeder. What would be the cons of this?
Usually I broadcast cover crops, but would like to get it more even. I thought this could be a great way to enter CC into WW in spring time, if weather allows.
Like many on this forum...
I have both. To me, the Avatar is for spring drilling or after osr, beans etc. in the autumn when its dry.
Sprinter is for autumn drilling. Will cope better with a lot of fresh straw is the idea. Better seed to soil contact compared with the Avatar.
@alomy75 seems more experienced than me, and...
