I had the tank off my one recently too. I took it off as the tractor was been split for a new damper plate. I had to remove the loader brackets also. It didn't take me much along with a hour to do. I had good sockets and an impact wrench to help.
I have similar crops of spring barley for wholecroping. I also grew winter barley and maize which preformed far better. The spring barley didnt preform well due to the wet spring followed by a drought.
I grew oats and peas a few years ago. The only weed spray I could use without killing the...
Happy birthday Tff 👍. It's hard to believe that it's nearly ten years since I first joined up in October 2013. Its a great source of information and a good social outlet for farmers. I have a learnt a lot from reading threads and it have helped improve the way I farm. A big word of thanks to...
Each load was 25 miles each way so 50 round trip. There is a man driving the loader there all day so when he was doing that I was having my dinner or tea. It was straightforward enough at the other end just weigh in and out and tip without delay. We are drawing with tandem axle traliers on ball...
The tillage farmer I do work for sells his grain to a mill 25 miles away. Loading and drawing out the yard. A long day to load and draw 6 loads or around 120 tons. The malting barley goes to a mill around 15 miles away. Its slower than the feed as a longer wait to tip due to testing.
I had the same problem in a field after grass too. The only solution that I know of is to go out with the flat roller and roll it at night before the dawn breaks. They will be out eating the crop before daylight.
The top dressing of nitrogen will give it a good drive on. Have you anyone walking...
I help a friend of mine out with a 5 mile draw with my wagon. He has two wagons drawing too. He has ground around the yard too so when we come back from the long draw we bring in a load back from the near field and that keeps the loader man busy all day and not under pressure.
Its not heavy...
I have been doing the same as the op these past three years now. I was relying too much on growing a good crop of second cut silage to keep feed reserves up and I have land away from the farm thats a bit far for silage and it wasnt fenced for cattle at the time.
My first crop in 2020 was oats...
The drive coupler has failed on my tarrup mower. My dealer says that the part isnt available in ireland. Has anyone have any idea where I would find one?
I smoked since the age of 15. I was coming up to my 30th birthday in 2018 and by the autumn of 2017 I had my mind made up. By this time I was smoking 30 a day and I had spent nearly half of my life smoking. I went in to the doctor and got him to prescibe the strongest nictotine patchs available...
The mobile saved my life the day I was attacked by a bull. I was able to ring my neighbour and he got me out of the field and to an ambulance. Without it I would have died in the field. I never leave home without my phone.
It does the job the finest for the mixs I'm feeding once it's fairly short.
This was haylage so it was fairly high dm. I used to fill it up and leave it mixing and then I would go in and have the breakfast.
The last Keenan I bought I told them to leave off the bale handler as the banging would test my patience. I'm mostly mixing pit silage,meal and chopped beet so mixing times doesn't be much longer than 5/10 minutes per load. A couple of years ago I had to buy a go of bales to stretch my silage...
