Hoping the techies on here can help Since last year we have had a new to us Amazone ZA-TS spinner, wich was eventaully fully set up with GPS switch, sectional control etc. No autosteer. Now I may be thick, (probably) but what do people do for guidance with this? i.e. setting up and following AB...

Can I pick the brains of those of you that rear groups of calves on barrels with teats please? We've always fed milk in groups of 10 with teat feeders, but feel we need to give them more volume whilst also speeding it up. I feel that barrels would be the logical way to go. Would 10 calves in a...

Would anyone on here have, or know of used delaval transponders for sale? Needing about a hundred as soon as possible Thanks

Would Trio points fit a GLS leg? wanting a bit more lift for arable land. has anyone done so? Low disturbance not as important, just more grunt. TIA

Mornin all, Haven't really had to feed much silage whilst grazing before, but it looks very much like we will have to. What are people's preferred methods? Bales through the wagon in lines on the paddocks? Just bales at the barrier when they come in? Clamp silage through spreader on paddock...

Currently spend quite a bit on pumping:poop::poop::poop::poop::poop:, particularly double pumping up to 3500m. would average out at probably 2000+m of pipe. What would be the best options for single pumping as far as we can? go to bigger pipes? thinking maybe 800-1000m of 6" then about the same...

As above, is there a tap to lock out the front arms? If there is, it must be very well hidden! Tried bringing the flow down to 0% but that doesn't work. Bit dangerous with the front mower as it is.

Just wondering what those of you who haul silage a fair distance have as trailers? Good 10 mile one way run. Average crops Jag 890. Is it 8,10,12 trailers? Ta

Evening all, just on with planning for a new clamp. What widths are people using for what number of cows? Currently have 350ish cows, and was wondering could I go to 60 or 80 foot wide? Or is that just being daft? Shear grab into diet feeder job. Obviously 2 narrower pits would be preferable...

After 5 or 6 teasers, ready to go in. If anyone has anything available. Left it late, so am willing to travel. Thanks

I really didn't want to start another 'which breed' thread, as I'm sure everyone's had more than enough of those.....but.. We run quite a few draft welsh ewes (snowdonia type, 40-50kg), currently all put to charollais tups. BUT I want to try to cross them to get a slightly better ewe, which...

Folding cambridge rollers from Hinkley, Leics. to Anglesey. Can be loaded on flat.This week if possible.

Just spotted signs of scab in one of the flocks today. 500 welsh ewes. Most probably from the neighbouring common. How effective is closamectin? I assume it needs a follow up at 7 days. Ewes would be due a fluke dose at scanning in a couple of weeks anyway. I've used dectomac and bimectin in the...

Good evening, hoping to glean some advice/answers from the esteemed machinery collective. We have an amazone ZAM 3001 control with auto forward speed rate control. It opens up as speed increases, but then sticks at the fastest speed setting, and doesn't shut down as you slow down. Anybody had...
