I’m looking at possibly purchasing a direct drill for rejuvenating grassland and will probably do some contract work with it, I was just wondering what the going rate per acre is. Like the roundbaling thread on here I expect there will be significant variations, would be nice to try and get a...

The main switch on my sprayer joystick is a bit iffy, so I have decided to replace it. Has anyone done this and able to share wisdom with me before the swearing begins? It appears that the switch doesn't screw in, but rather pushes into the housing. There doesn't appear to be a way to remove the...

I`ve just posted a parts manual on a thread about stripping a lely mower. How about we have a thread where we can upload anything like that for others to use. Just an idea??

Any happy Mazzotti owners out there?

Càn you run a new diet feeder with power beyond. Want to keep pipes to a minimum and use a control box in cab. If we have to put on tractor without power beyond can feeder work at all? Is there a way round this? Thanks for any help

Anyone use this? Does it work out cheaper? What brand? Have you ordered recently what price? Do you use a wisdom pump? Thanks

Hello everyone, we recently purchased a 2002 Chafer Mirage and we are having trouble figuring out how to actually get it to spray, some other small problems like activating the 4 wheel steer and unknown buttons in the cab as the manual is very bare on details. Any help would be very much...

Just trying to get an idea of what works well and what doesn’t. Any views?

Anybody running one? Specially a 2170. Anything to look out for? Would it be any good on a sprayer? What’s the tallest tyre they can take?

How does everybody view this subject? Possibly the most important machine on a farm so how much are you willing to pay? I bought my existing machine brand new 14 yrs ago. It cost £32,000 on farm. I’ve being having some ongoing problems with it basically due to its age and liquid fertiliser. To...

Possibly looking at changing our trailed sprayer out this time , been a good old thing , bethould dpa , but time catching up with her and with twice the average to do next year time she has to go. 24m , 3500l plus , will be in some sidings so low centre of gravity , tracking of some kind and a...

My wheat has it's flag leaf fully emerged and i want to give it some N. The problem is that there's no significant rain in the forecast for the next couple of weeks so i was thinking i would spray some urea + epso top on it to give it a boost. How much urea can i use per ha without schorching...

Haven’t heard of any yet. Anyone had any issues at T1?

I am looking for a good make off boiler suit that will fit as never used them before as have always struggled with boiler suits as as they never fit well. I am not too tall they only 6’4” but they are always to short and baggy.

Couldn’t really think where else to put this so it’s here. I’ve a few lawns round the house that have turned to spongy poor grass after years of mowing and constant mole attack. I’m fed up of spending a gallon of fuel and half a day mowing them. Despite my complaints they look nice but the...

So having asked on here a few years ago we bought a trailed 36m sprayer having taken the job back in hand due to not receiving good service from the contractor we were using. We went with a well used trailed 36m because the contractor was using a 36m SP and we liked the way the boom could cover...

Amazone and horsch look the obvious choices any others to check out? Pros/cons over a trailed sprayer? Currently got a trailed 3200lt GMR but it's heavy to pull up hills for traction first time through.

I wanted to canvas opinion on systems that qualify under the farming equipment and technology fund FETF 50 (variable rate controller for sprayer) to give me section control. I've asked the company that looks after my sprayer and they don't seem responsive (perhaps don't know?) and tried several...
