Are there any sprays now or have they all been taken off the market ?

As title says really.. Badgers are destroying good grassland.. rolling up big areas of Turff!! Any ideas on how i can stop it???

A word of caution…. I sold my 2015 Amazone UX3200 sprayer a few weeks ago because it had done 70,000 acres and it was also tactically the right thing to do from a deprecation/tax point of view. i bought it new, and I can honestly say it never once let me down. Ever. I wanted a new Amazone...

We all know it’s a waste of time but where do I send bits of paper off to so I can get the points which tick the box to go spraying nowadays?

Been a good year filming with Carsehall Farm 2022, from new kit, 6 cuts of grass (5 on camera) to liquid fertiliser then the move to a more direct drilling method. Some changes across the season too and a few more next year as well... Also Lyons Contracts providing the 9900i & 8600i on...

Acres of our land absolutely destroyed by CHAFER GRUBS and crows!! Is there a cure to this? Heard maybe growing maize or kale could help? Is there a pesticide I could use? This has happened for last 3 years, what causes this to happen?

Ali from Carsehall Farms spraying Manganese with a Soil Bio Stimulant onto some winter barley but not just any winter barley. With the @New Holland Agriculture T7210 on the front of the @Chafer Crop Sprayers 36m Sentry 5000. The tractor and sprayer are kitted out with @MICHELIN Agriculture...

Looking at updating my trailed sprayer and quite a lot come fitted with GPS section control. Not individual nozzle control. So the same thing i currently have but controlled by satellite (I use a lightbar to help with on an offs). My questions are; is it useful/reliable? I currently put...

Hi, my Silage fields are a mess! Hundreds/thousands of crows feeding on chafer grubs. Turf ripped up everywhere. Looked into possible control measures….nemasys nematodes look to be the main treatment but very expensive if doing a large area!! Does anyone have any advise/alternative treatments...

I know a pointless thread, but it's on my mind at moment and interested in other people's views and opinions. For doing pre ems and spraying winter crops I have been using our T7 260. I find the tractor a much better machine for spraying than the 2011 2170 fastrac I normally use. Cvt...

This autumn my 6.5 acre paddock was plauged by hundreds of birds (crows, blackbirds, etc.) pecking out the grass and leaving the soil bare and covered with the dead grass plants. Neighbouring paddocks are not affected in this way and the perimeter has been left unpicked. The only difference I...

Need something relatively simple to cover approx 3500 acres in total per year. 24m booms with some sort of section control as fields not massive and can be odd shapes. Budget circa £15k No idea these days but quite liked the look of a JD 732i looked at recently but everything looks so complex...

I have just bought a Horstine spreader to put Avadex granules on barley pre em. Does anyone know what the setting should be ? I've never used one before

I’ve never had one just fill the sprayer to the mark on the tank but thinking as I’m piping up a new tank It might be a good time to get one. Are they battery operated and do you leave them on the tank outlet all the while or take them off and put inside and do they restrict flow. Also what size...
