Hi folks
Wondering if anyone has any pictures of the IH434 Narrow on farm. Trying to find a picture of the protective screen it was provided with. The only ones I can find online are from the sales brochure and the operator's manual. Unsure on what these screens were made of (possibly...
Anyone got one?

It...
So who will be the 1st in the UK to buy one of these? 830hp (boosting to 913hp) and a ballasted weight of 38 tonnes. There'll be some here in Lincs no doubt. I suspect the bigger announcement by Deere yesterday though was the autonomous tractor capability being built into many of their new...
Got some formerly good hardcore farm tracks which are getting veery pot holes due to this winter weather. Filling potholes is becoming a daily chore at the moment as whatever we put in just comes out again when vehicles drive over it. Have tried breaking up the area around the potholes to get...

How do you ever judge whether the end of the 36mtr or wider sprayer boom is not overlapping the grass margins around the edges of fields, especially when spraying glyphosate!!!
