Airedale in first cut ....
100kgN/ha plus 140kg/ha sulphur on yesterday with a bosh of slurry on Monday should see us reet for cutting in 5 weeks Gods willing
Some real world advice sought and a lot of strange numbers involved.
Tractor is on 650/65R38 rear and 540/65R28 front.
Ideally I’d dual up with the same but can’t find any of that size and buying new is eye watering.
From some internet searching it appears that a 20.8x38 is equivalent to a...
So whats the best tyre size for a dual wheel set up when running a 3m wide drill? The tractor is a 200hp size machine. Obviously we don't want wheeling sticking outside the drills working width but at the same time we want as much tyre on the ground.
So on a not for profit basis ie you want to have the best crops in the area.
How should your tractor be kitted out to provide the best conditions for your seeds.
I plough, contractor power harrow drills & we have grass, veg & potatoes in the rotation. So really need to plough especially when...
Went to the local showing of the new combines. Very nice but my god are they actually going to sell a single one for next harvest. £500,000 for the big one after discount according to the chap that showed us around one. Will anybody risk that purchase in present financial conditions.
These look like a great idea - I've not seen them before but looks like they have been at a few of the shows.
Can anyone see any faults in this?

Upland beef and sheep farm wanting to improve some pp, after pointers/ criticism any of you might have with regard to build and suitability for drinking into pp! Fancy making a 3pl tine drill on a budget of around £3500. Was thinking of 3m wide 4/5mm 100mm box frame with two rows of the...
taking a cue from others with their own threads....and upon a suggestion of a friend whom i keep 'entertained':rolleyes:
so today.....up at the sheds at 6am to check for lambings although we're not supposed to start for a month:banghead:....just a single....penned it up and back for school...
Okay, so I have just moved the farm forward from pitch forks to the 1970s by getting this little loader tractor:
It needs a few jobs doing before I can start using it in anger though. Can anyone recommend where I can buy basic service items for it, and is there anything particularly worth...
:oops:
Eh up!
The idea of starting a thread about Holistic management has been on my mind for ages, if I am honest.
Lets start by me putting my cards on the table - I have NO formal training, NO books, and NO interest in starting big wars on which way is best.
I do, however, completely and...
Aye-up,
I think that’s what they were called, the Massey Ferguson things giving adjustable wheel tracks.
Anything like that available these days or even a variable width mechanically driven axle? Hydrostatic would be no good I don’t think.
Just pondering.........
I do a lot of that...
I'm looking around for fuel bowsers and wondering there is a service trailer available, to bowser fuel, have a compressor onboard, and secure place to hold oil and tools?
I've seen the tractor towed versions but is there anything that could be towed behind a pickup? There seems to be a few...
Thought it would be useful to gain some knowledge from other weaving GD users out there to share experiences / problems / solutions.
I'll start.....anyone else had problems with blocked coulters? I've had a lot. It's been on the wetter side of ideal, but still good drilling conditions. It's got...
Just mentioned in Agricultural Matters it might be interesting if everyone just took a picture today of what you were doing, however mundane it maybe, would show the variety of work carried out, will start tomorrow.
