Come on you farm engineers if you were to build one from scratch
what features would be an absolute must.
Would you choose discs or more of a knife like coulter?
How would you go about designing a drill which would cope with a mixture of cropping

Hi all,
I came across this forum and thought it may be worth a shot posting on here. If you don't ask then you'll never get anything! Obviously I understand the financial implications of taking on a shoot and well aware of costs.
