    My ding-a-ling?

    Treated myself to a new workbench - about 4m wide, legs each end (of course) and support legs in the middle. All steel, box legs and steel shelf under the 10mm top (which doesn't look thick enough, but heyho!). It replaces a very old wooden bench which could be on its 4th generation of...

    How to set constant PTO speed on T6.180

    I need to set a constant PTO speed on our 2022 T6.180 for fert spreading and drilling, without the snazzy screen or Ground Speed Management feature. Is it just a case of starting the PTO at required speed (e.g. 540) and then pressing the PTO mode button on the joystick? I can't find it in the...

    Herbal Ley survival?

    I was walking one of my "herbal leys" yesterday, and it looks as if the herb constituent has given up the ghost, bar a bit of white clover. The wet winter with the heavy clay lying wet for weeks on end is not conducive to the ley's survival I find. The easier land has seen a better success long...

    Winter cover crops on heavy land... what a disaster

    I farm heavy silty clay with flints. No ditches, no land drains. Good strong wheat land, if unforgiving. I've been trying to grow cover crops on and off for the last 9 yrs. With one exception, they have all been disastrous. Summer cover crops in place of a spring crop, on the other hand, can...

    To cultivate or not to cultivate that is the question

Records show our best yields come from a crop planted late February early March with later planted crops suffering in both reduced yield and higher N...
