pickup

Looking about for a decent sh trailer. 12 or 14ft. Wheels on outside. Got to have good sheep decks. What's the better trailer? Anything for sale that's not in Scotland...

Spirit Levels. What’s the point of them on Farm Machinery? Have them on Manitou & Lemken machines here. Neither anywhere accurate. Somebody could have done with one when fitting it:ROFLMAO: What other useless features have others come across on their machines?

Predicted that within 5 years new cars won't be offered with a manual gearbox. Change driven by rise (& legislation) of EVs but also by new drivers opting to learn only on automatics. Be a bit sad IMO as it's a pleasure & a skill to match gear changes to revs but with flappy paddles, I have...

Hello, i’ve just gotten a 2,40 m wide disc mower without a conditioner. I’ve also gotten an old Orkel baler (the one that has an integrated forage harvester instead of a pickup, GP1202). This means that the baler can’t handle too much grass at once. By collecting the grass after the mower, i...

Are lots of ebay ads being written by AI now? Im toying with the idea of getting a van rather than my pickup. Browsing through different ones I keep reading virtually the same nonesense adverts that are just plenty of words but no real description of the vehicle. Is anyone else finding this?

Interesting to hear your thoughts! We have some sappy first cut, will be tedding behind mower.

New to trailed drills, struggling to turn round on headland without massive headland. Do people use drawbar or pickup hitch to get round this? Cheers Paul

An email this morning from Grenadier which accidentally admits that their ‘certified commercial’ versions were never actually such a thing. They have now announced a blind van that actually meets the legal criteria for tax purposes. The second row doors have been blacked out and made...

How do others find this? Twice now it's jammed on the brakes with nothing in front but another vehicle coming the other way while slowing down to pull into our driveway. You can't permanently turn it off. How's seasoned users getting with these safety features?

Aye up, Tricky question, I know, but I’m asking on behalf of someone else. Nice, tidy condition, not knocked about, S regd I think, dark green, hard top 90, chunky alloys, wide tyres, average mileage. Pretty standard spec….. But the engine was boiled. It isn’t seized, turns over well enough...

looking to upgrade a few things and offset some tax in the process but not overpay....has anyone had quotes for tractors or machinery in 2024 and if so what were they if you dont mind posting? ive been told dealers were now stuck with stock they cant shift but are they prepared to drop? waiting...

Hi we planted a small vineyard but can't afford a top notch mower to keep on top of mowing between the rows....we hoped to hire so we could save up and try before we buy but our local hire companies (Hastings) dont have anything suitable....can anyone recommend where i could hire a mower that...

Hello! Thanks for letting me be a part of this community! I am able to buy a Fransgard mower from a neigbour that just quit. This is a Fransgard K-240 mower that has only been used for a season. He says he will sell it to me for half the price of a new one (new one in Norway is £7300 and he’s...

Our company is looking to move production from China to the UK and for stage one I am looking to source approx 1.5 million lbs of millet, however for stage 2 we will need at least 3-4 million lbs per annum I am wondering if anyone can recommend or help me in finding a UK source that could...

Greetings. I've decided to reach out and see if I can gather some ideas about any aspects of keeping 1,500 sheep you care to discuss. I'm in the Northeast US. I've had 120 +/- ewes for the last 5 years and now looking to expand to 1,500 for a solar park grazing contract. Winters are wet and...

I don't think Tim Parton posted much here but sometimes did. Others will know him. He seems to have had an awful accident and (I think) he was a farm manager so may not have as much to fall back on as others. It sounds absolutely horrendous, so sorry to hear of this, it could happen to any of...

Be gentle... ignorant arable farmer asking for a friend on this one... Let's say you had £25k, and wanted to get into livestock. You have access to low imput permanent pasture (heavy land), and occasionally some rotational leys. You have access to a loader, You have an old shed, potential...

Is it just me or is most of the adverts just scams. Browsing through 7 seaters and fairly new peugeot 5008 for 3-4 k, volvo xc90 for similar money. Do they think were stupid. How is this still alowed to go on

Does anyone think we need cloud cover as like a kind of insulation?
