[QUOTE="farmer steve, post: 5743902, member: 1876"] Every year seems to be different here (south lincolnshire) depending on the conditions. This year was certainly the worst with the ground being so dry. Several years ago we used to drill rape with a 6m rapid lift on the vaderstad drill, it was ok but soon bunged up badly in the wet. Then went back to stocks seeders on sumo's dropping it behind the leg. It works well when there's moisture and get rain after drilling. This year though not so good, not helped by flea beetle. We always take the discs out of sumo's for rape drilling as boss likes the low disturbance. Trouble is the legs even though they are low disturbance points can soon leave a open slot which then bakes out if it stays dry which is not great for rape chitting in. Doesn't help being on heavy land. [/QUOTE]
