Just a curiosity question here. Does the number designated to each size of transmision actually mean anything other than a way of identifying it. As in a 716 has a ml 140, 718-720 has a ml 180iirc and a 516 has a ml 90. Reason i ask is a ml 90 sounds quite small for a 516 compared to a ml140 in...
Writing up my spray records from just applying some pre-ems, I looked back to mid 2000's. The amount of chemicals we use now compared to then and how we got by with simple fungicides makes it look like the industry has gone down the pan. A lot of actives have gone and those left we have been...
We have taken our arable operations back in-house and I am costing up sprayer options as the contracting bill is likely to be £7k-£8k per year and I have my PA quals, having been using a simple 12 m mounted for all our grass and stewardship stuff.
We have 90 ha of cereals in 3 blocks of 29-32...

My MF 6480 (t3 Perkins) won't start after changing filters.
Refitted filters to check it wasn't sucking air in system, but still won't start.

Coming up with error code 678, not sure what that means

Would i notice any difference in power over my 6470 t3.

We are just fitting a loader to our t3 6480,

Anyone have any experience and or feed back...

So it’s getting to the time I need to start looking at replacing my tractor. Before I go asking dealers for prices and then faint when they tell me. Roughly what are people paying for a 140-160hp tractor with a loader. Also what’s your thoughts on the tractor you bought? Do you wish you got a...

Only Problem is that I'm looking now at major harm to my bank balance . BYDV is absolutely rife in my unsprayed wheat but mainly controlled in my...
