    Broadcast cover crop into standing crop 36m

    Just wondering if anyone is successful in broadcasting cover crops into standing crop pre harvest. We are at 36m, is anyone doing it at that width, and also has it proved a successful method of establishment? Cheers

    What £30k tractor?

    Sprayer boom widths

    We’ve been using a trailed 36m sprayer running on 650’s all year round (tractor also on 650’s). We are thinking of selling the sprayer as it’s now 10 years old. Looking around newish trailed machines have shot up in price making decent used SP’s look attractive again but they all seem to be 24m...

    On vehicle battery trickle and boost unit.

    I have been searching for a commercially available unit to permanently install on my sprayer and permanently wire to the battery.

    Fertiliser nozzles

    Presently using chafer dribble bars but a potential change to a different sprayer means that nozzles would be the way to go. What are you using and how do you get on with them?

    Typical power/size vs. acreage?

    Hey all, I hope you don't mind indulging this non-farmer but I'm very curious about the typical size and power of tractors - plus the size of implements - you use vs. the size of fields/farm that you're working on?
