We have a milk tank on a gantry in our bottling plant. Monitoring the level during processing involves sprinting up & down the stairs.
Wondering about putting it on weigh cells with a display downstairs
Gross weight full will be about 7 tonnes
I was thinking 2 channels each side under the feet...
Hi Guys, I am looking to buy my own fert spreader after using a contractor for a number of years. I want section control, variable rate and all that kind of stuff so I believe it has to be hydraulic drive.
Is there a front runner make and model or anyone to avoid?
Weighing up each option for a Geospread fertiliser spreader.
Anybody with experience of either or both willing to shed some light? Functionality and cost both factors to consider.
Just wondering if anyone has got or has used a bunning farmstar 80 with hbd deck. Looking at one for spreading a variety of manures but also with the possibility of top dressing cereal crop.
How well does the single beater cope with fym. Thanks
I'm toying with ideas for a grain shed
Max 300ton grain (I could extend she'd if something altered)
Store protein, rolled barley and mill(PTO roller mill)
Possibly mollases.
I'm thinking I could either use the kongskilde blower to load mill or loader from grain store, would box in the "rolled"...
Hi all.
I am trying to redo my lamb weigh operations and am looking to get a weigh crate that is open topped so I can weigh lambs, then handle their backs to check they have plenty cover on them, and also be able to worm them or spray them whilst in the crate.
I have a Ritchie and an IAE but...
Seven years into my CFA and we finally have some decent infrastructure. For this winter I will get by with the machinery I have but looking forward to next winter I'm still struggling to work out the best way to physically feed silages to the cows.
This is the layout we nearly have now...
Red Tractor board member no longer. Resigned? Not stood again? Don't know. But not great calling your farmer members "backstabbers" because they have a different opinion and suggest some reform and improvements.
All we want is for feed mills to be able to choose their own intake standards...
I've had 4 cows in the past ten days with milk fever like symptoms. They are all 200+ days in milk.
The current diet is approx
4kg DM maize silage
3kg cake
7 kg DM grazed grass
We're still doing building work so only have feed space for 200 out of 500. Is maize low enough in Ca that if...
Our old converted pig weigh is givin erratic weights, so wa ting to convert to a new one.
Needs to be digital and weigh properly 🤣
Will shed lambs into it from the race, so doesn't need to shed.
Don't need tag reader or Bluetooth, will possibly be moved once or twice a year, from one holding...
Hi all
I manage a 840,000 broiler site in West Norfolk and am looking for reccomendations for reliable remote monitoring sensors for our feed silos- we have 24, 28 tonne silos on site. I have been looking into a cost effective solution so we can live montior feed in each silo for more precise...
We run a Mzuri drill and have recently built a broiler unit. We plan to utilise the muck on the arable land. My worry is spreading it pre-drilling - will we be caught out for not incorporating the muck into the soils? How do other people mange this? Is it left on top and you chance the rules...
As per title.
I am thinking of dropping winter barley and reducing wheat in favour of spring crops grown with plenty of pig muck under them .
What’s everyone’s thoughts ?
A local weigh bridge has closed, always took it for granted £5 per weigh.
I'm in an industrial area so a few about, but how do people manage out in the country.
Which baler to replace a variable chamber Krone? McHale roller makes best shaped bales of grass, Kuhn belt best for swallowing dry stuff (and presumably straw), but bales of second cut sag before wrapping (or I didn't set the density correct on the demo).
What are the McHale V6 like for making...
