We have a Grass Tech beet Master here. It's a root washer, chopper and feeder bucket that enables us to quickly wash, chop and feed roots all in the one operation. It will also dispense meal.

Like the look of the washing but doesn't chop as fine as I'd like.

A friend Near Dublin made his own machine to wash beet AND potatoes ( so the spuds would not pass through the bars - Tanco style)
and because of the stones had a KW bucket which he used after washing - as he wanted a fine chop, and also fed meal , veg waste etc.

Stones are not a problem for for us as we harvest with an Armer TR2000. List price when we purchased in spring 2016 was €7K + vat. Washed over 900 tonns so far this season.
