    2000G tanker.Horsepower needed??

    Hi lads & ladies . I am thinking of availing of the TAMS young farmer grant for a 2000g tanker & dribblebar. I have a 120hp massey 6cylinder. Is this enough power to operate a tanker that size ? Land is flat & not soft Thanks

    Im sure its on here but trailing shoe or dribble bar.

    I feel trailing shoe is better but will customers pay extra to cover the higher running cost

    Curious Engineering Student, do farmers actually use all new technology that engineering blogs tell me there is?

    Do you actually use: drone scanning technology, 3D mapping, temperature and moisture sensors, farming data, or any of the "modern sophisticated farming equipment" that engineering blog posts talk about. I'd love to hear whether this stuff is actually used or just bull-crap.

Silage ground is an hour round trip but most will get some for first and second cut. However the home platform is all grazed. How and when do people...

    Dribble bars, when are they becoming mandatory?

    We got a leaflet and associated info through early this year saying as of January 1st 2023 all slurry on a farm in Scotland with over 200 cattle in total must apply slurry using a low emissions system, and there’s a grant to support this. We’ve ordered one but I can’t say the idea fills me with...
