[QUOTE="penfold, post: 1817734, member: 3000"] Hello All, Sorry never reported back on how we did! A salvage job would describe it best! But a good one! Managed to get most of the crop in the tank. Was expecting just over half a ton per acre and got just under half a ton. And a lot of worm casts!! Took two half days with sun and travelling very very slowly. Used the reel to lift the vetch onto the header. [USER=1233]@Simon Chiles[/USER] it was very tempting to abandon hope but patience and perseverance paid off in the end. We must be mad but we have doubled the acreage for this year. Theory being we cant have that rain in August two years on the trot!! Famous last words!! You'll have to blame me if we get another wet harvest!! Love what the vetch has done for our soil though. We have some fantastic looking wheat behind. This currently has a fair bit of volunteer vetch again but not too worried at the moment. [USER=1745]@H.Jackson[/USER] just had a look on You Tube at a Sund. Cracking piece of kit. Looks like just what we need. Looks pretty pricey mind. Anyone know of any cheap second hands about?!!! [/QUOTE]
