direct drilling into ploughed land by the looks of itThe SMS Smart fits into the latest grant scheme as well after going through it with them. 3m wide direct disc drill with 200-800 litre hopper and various rear roller options. Pricing in same sort of ball park as the others in this band depending on options.

Agreed. I can't see why strip till not included if you allowed a 'tine to make a seed slot'? You either can use a tine or you can't. I must be missing something in drill types? They're years ahead of us in the states with strip till accepted technology. Admittedly, they're mostly growing maize and soya.
Direct drill for precision drilling of arable and cover crops, using either tines or discs to produce the seeding slot. To be eligible the drill must have a minimum drilling width of 2.9 m, must have no cultivation or seed bed preparation equipment in front of the seeding slot mechanism and the seed must be placed in the seeding slot. The drill must be able to drill through a fully established growing cover crop of at least 15 cm in height. Purchase must include seed hoppers. The drill must be able to drill the full range of arable and cover crops including cereals. The following are not eligible: Cultivators with over-seeders or broadcasters, minimum till drills, strip till drills, grassland over-seeders, and grassland broadcasters.
It seems crazy that a Claydon wouldn't be eligible
Did you get a price for the 4m Simtech? I daren't ask them for a price again I'm sure they think, and I probably am, a tyre kicker.Poverty spec sim tec or Moore 3m is about 25k before you start ticking any option boxes. That’s before any grant is taken into account.
I’ve had prices of both in last couple of days
37k ballpark before you take any grant aid into accountDid you get a price for the 4m Simtech? I daren't ask them for a price again I'm sure they think, and I probably am, a tyre kicker.
Scary, not sure whether I dare invest 25k to change from a tried and tested system, 2nd year I've had the same dilemma, last year I had just bought my, new to me Vaddy, which I am more than happy with. I know my son isn't keen to change but I would love a go. Maybe the 3m box version and keep the Vaddy?37k ballpark
Budget wise We’re like that every year,Scary, not sure whether I dare invest 25k to change from a tried and tested system, 2nd year I've had the same dilemma, last year I had just bought my, new to me Vaddy, which I am more than happy with.

I'm at that money burning a hole in my pocket time of year, the shopping list is so long and the budget so small
Exactly the same here, went from a 3m to a 4m Vaddy last year and also run a 4m combi as spare. The 3m box drill would probably be more than adequate for me as the 3m Vaddy was just a 3m box drill too. The other thing I keep thinking, especially with diesel prices, is how cheap the box drill was to run. In Comparison with the air drill. Granted we have saved a cultivator pass so the extra cost is more than compensated but that wouldn't be the case with DD.Budget wise We’re like that every year,
trouble I have is we’re on 4m combi now and don’t really want to go back to 3m
