    might be a daft idea !!!

    Just cut holes in all the stables and blow it in each day with straw chopper……. Then you can regulate the amount and charge extra for bedding them up …. 🤣🤣😂☺️

    might be a daft idea !!!

    Surely they’ll moan like crazy about moving fluffy straw…. Is it worth the effort? Especially if you add in the diesel/ wear and tear on the machinery and your added time ???

    Next Loader Tractor

    Better than the 6130m it replaced!! Engine is fiat based apparently …. Will hang on in there, unlike the Deere. Regularly use it for carting 10/11 tonne loads of straw about..

    Fastrac demount sprayer

    Not that I recall! It never seemed too bad. You certainly have to look after them and operate with a lot of mechanical sympathy !! Mine developed an intermittent fault in the brake system, which is the reason she had to go in the end. Both the 1115 and 1135 have hydraulically operated brake...

    Number of tractors

    The ‘classic ‘ status seems to be getting used for quite modern machinery now in my opinion.. Quite common for 30 series Deeres to be referred to as classic’s. for me I think the cut off is about 20 years, so anything pre 2003 would be a classic in my eyes. 40 years would see it as...
