    I hate modern tractors

    OK so we only buy 2nd hand ones with around 5000hrs on them then generally add at least 1000+ hours to each/year but, frig me, these modern tractors are pansies always throwing up error codes and acting up. Have manufacturers overdone it with all the sensors and the stupidity of emissions...

    My neighbour has offered me about 4 ha of italien ryegrass that wont fit into his silage pit. Might seem like a silly question, I have never done pit silage before, I would like to try a small heap, do I need to scrap the area before, or will it make any difference if I were to put it straight...

    Re-bailing, is it ever worth it ?

    I have always liked the idea of rebailing both hay and straw into conventional bales. Much less stress in the summer - just smack it into big squares or rounds just as it’s fit, so easy to cart, stack. Etc… Then, in the winter, when it’s cold and wet outside, feed them into a conventional...
