Costs

Ha haa ! Having dropped the plough for some years now, it's the next step I think, but having the Kuhn version of your drill, it has made me think, ( I do like your front tank, good weight distribution )

Trash management is absolutely crucial

Do you achieve this with your paddles on your rolls ?

 

[Badshot]

Yes, they spread the straw very evenly over the field. However it is a late morning onwards job till the dew comes down again. Any hint of moisture and the trash stops flowing, also dry fields are helpful as it allows full pressure to be put on them.

Walk away now until after christmas and if there is a crop there put your kerb on and feed it and if there isn't your had a bit of green cover and hopefully some nice soil to put a spring crop into.
