    Scraping out… Robotics, automatic scrapers or tractors?

    We are currently building new cubicle housing for 100 cows and are at a crossroads with regards to scraping out. My dad wants to install a lely/jos slurry collector I would prefer to install Storth rope scrapers My brother would prefer to scrape the building out with the machine. Any thoughts?

    David Brown LQ8 loader on a 780

    Hi all, I believe that a 780 is pretty much an 880 engine block so will the LQ8 loader with the spool controls fit..? Its looks ok and the hole placements on the arms looks correct. Thanks Rolf

    Anyone using this compost on grassland ? I make haylage every year and have no livestock, I'm very reluctant to import Slurry or Dung as in the past I've found that it's a great way to import weeds /docks etc. It seems that at times this compost can be obtained FOC, so just thinking it might be...

    SFI and custom seed mixes

    I've got a decent area going into various schemes. Sourcing the straight seeds and mixing them could be a viable option. Question is what is everyone using to mix it? My Belle is definitely a cement only machine so just curious what everyone else would use? Thanking you

Just seems to make sense to take dump trailer and digger together, so you don’t have to keep running back and forth with a low loader. It would also reduce the capital tied up in having both a low loader and a...
