[QUOTE="Wil M, post: 3350796, member: 62628"] Thanks for all the responses. Yes, I believe there is still a T-Sem 300 for sale in the classifieds- an ad for pneumatic version too- but it may be gone. The chap selling the box drill version has made enquiries about an ad for an Amazone P/H drill combination though, so not quite sure what to make of that?! My concerns about the T-Sem: lack of tramlining- OK, can use GPS to find way round with sprays and fertiliser, but how many more green grains am I going to have in the grain heap come harvest time? possibly more of a problem with slower ripening for me being further north. Sponge seed feed mechanism- obviously got to be kept well away from any vermin, and do sponges disintegrate over time? Stones- I do have them on my farm- will the T-Sem work round about them or bring everything it can find to the surface? Does drilling fertiliser with seed when direct drilling provide any definite advantage in getting crops off to a quick start, and away from slugs and other pests? Is the T-Sem any better than other Direct Drills in providing some mineralised N from soil through production of tilth as the tine rattles its way along the slot? [/QUOTE]
