[QUOTE="Devil's advocate, post: 7111294, member: 1504"] We grow 5 acre of potatoes for farmshop & because we have heavy land or light land with stone pick by hand. I'm sure many think why not just buy the potatoes. The answer is that people like them, whether its the rotation, the manure, the soil but people love them. However the 45 year old ransome is getting past its best so considering a replacement. There are still a few firms building similar machines to the ransome. They all offer Diablo rollers, I'm not sure, we dabbled with using a grimme harvester & yes great in dry weather on heavy land but in wet conditions especially lifting green top the diablo rollers would often bung up especially if a stone got stuck between the disc & the roller. I tried the grimme without the roller on, thinking the potatoes would just go up the web but that did not work. So comments please on diablo rollers & do you ever remove them? [/QUOTE]
