Hi new to the forum but looking for some help. I am an organic tillage farmer with a smallish problem with charlock!! The combcut machine looks good for it but does anyone have one or info.
Thanks

Don’t know where you are but might be worth seeing if Tom still has this or if was ever any good

We resort to wholecrop

Thanks for the reply , I’m in munster in ireland and as far as I know none have been sold here. I’ll contact the contractor in the link to see what he thought if it. I am trying different approaches like winter crops stale seed beds and late sown spring crops.

Hi, did you ever get the combcut- or anything similar?

We tried the comb cut last year in spring wheat with bad docks. Really didn’t work for us in this situation. Docks were too close to wheat and wheat was really thick so continually blocked machine after a couple of meters.
I could see it would work in something with more of a gap or a thin cereal crop.
primewest have one to sell/demo

Thanks, have a big problem with charlock in organic crops this year and the combcut looks like it might be a solution for next year
