Best power Harrow disc drill combi

[traadilooar]

What do people reckon between an amazone power Harrow and adp special, a kuhn venta, or an Andy guest kuhn accord refurb?

 

[traadilooar]

All on disc coulers

For heavy ground, the Amazone KG ph, for soft southerners on their sand, owt else.

Amazone power harrow and drill with Kuhn venta coulters for me and that's coming from someone with a Kuhn venta (new) model combi unit there's nowt wrong with it but they've over complicated some things compared to the NC-LC we had beforehand.

One of these

Or the 6m version

Too many fancy linkages, wearing parts, lack of rotors and both too expensive. Having run an accord on CX discs, poor penetration and phenomenally expensive to run - avoid.
Sulky good but expensive. Bought a Pottinger on ADD discs - lot cheaper and have to say I'm impressed

Lemken best of the bunch I think at moment only downside is price of tines

Lemken pharrow good, drill not heavy duty enough for tough going ime

New or used. Horsch combi takes some beating. It's a Kuhn powerharrow with pronto drill coulters

I've given my lemken drill a fair bit of stick over the years and apart from a couple of the links onto press wheels no issues

We tried a Lemkin solitaire 9, an Amazone super, and a Horsch express kr, all were very good drills but we went for the Horsch. The double disc coulter is exceptionally good at accurately controlling seed depth, and is simple to set. We likes the fact that there are no complicated linkages to wear also.

Spoke to him at YAMS last year and he. came across as someone passionate about what he was doing. Smart looking kit as well. Think he is a member on here.

What sort of dollar is a horsch?

Only really thinking of kuhn or amazone as they are the dealers we have.

What's it like in the wet? Wheels seem very close behind counters so we worried they would smear

Horsch and Kuhn were about the same money a year ago only thing that put us off off the horsch was the 150 mm spacing. The new Kuhn tines are a bit more expensive than the old ones.

I've got a KV combi which is well made.

Got a new folding lemken solitair 9 zirkon combi coming on Tuesday. Heavy drill but does put in in really well.

Circa £35k 3yrs back when we were in the market for such a rig
