I often contribute to the Ford & JD 80’s pics, but as my name suggests, I grew up with MF through the 70’s to the 90’s, so I thought a thread had to be started for the red fans. Please feel free to add your MF machinery. Let’s begin.

Quick question folks. We usually try to drill straight on to ploughed ground using a single pass with combi drill. Most of it is medium bodied land and tractor drives smoothly over top of it. However, some of it ploughs up like sides of bacon and so drilling tractor can be rocking from side to...

Wondering what success people have had with different methods this year. I personally chose to lightly disc followed by Cambridge rolls with my stocks fan jet mounted to my front weight spreading at 8m to match my rolls. This was a cheap way for me to establish the legume fallow. The ground had...

Hi everyone, Ploughing some heavy land at the moment. Plan is to drill it end of Sept. Question is, for best weatherproof chance, is it best to simply plough it, or plough and furrow press. (not going to DD or min-till it)? Photo of ploughing on left and furrow press on right. Photo taken...

Evening all Might seem a stupid question so bear with me but does anyone that owns a Kuhn HR 5003/5004 know it’s actual working width? As in could you put a tape across it next time you’re using it please? In the brochure the overall width of all the power harrows is approx 8-20cm wider than...

Pub question- you have a 6cyl 160hp tractor fitted with 540 & 540e pto speeds, and a range of implements rated for 540rpm input speed. Which would you use to be most efficient & productive, that is safe for both implement and tractor??

I am in need of a PH drill. Plan is to just buy a second hand with tank mounted to see us through a year or two. However I have a front tank which we use for cover crops, which is a new Horsch partner. Does anyone know of any good second hand power harrow and drill bit, preferably 6m available...

I think there are six corporate vet groups in the UK. In no particular order, IVC, Vet Partners, Vets for Pets, CVS, Medivet, Linneas. They have different models, levels of integration, but they all borrowed some cash to get to their present forms. IVC has been very aggressive in their growth...

I’m looking for opinions/recommendations on a cultivator to work land down before sowing to grass. Currently using a power harrow, several passes to try to get a firm level seedbed, the firm and level being the priorities for medium term grass leys. Power harrow is relatively slow and overkill...

We’ve not applied for any grants for a long time due to the ballache nature of them and the time delay aspect. Thinking about buying a subsoiler for grassland (mostly) and a set of short discs. Don’t need to buy right now, maybe winter/next year, are there any grants available or in the future...

We have taken on 10 acres of National Trust Land that had been abandoned by them for two years. It was all thistles and rough grass. Initially I put 5 Angus cross heifers on it from late January and gave them some feed blocks. They actually did a great job reducing the thatch of grass by grazing...
