I’m looking for a front press and after a quick look around the internet I’m now completely unsure what I’m looking for. They come in many different formats, large packer rollers like on a power harrow, gutter rollers, flexi coils and straight rings that I have seen…………as well as a variety of tones in the front of some.
So what are the pros and cons of the various types?
As far as use is concerned, a large proportion of the work will involve grass ground, either on furrows coming out of grass or on fields going back to grass, so I’m guessing tines might not be best for me.
Consolidation is important though, be it a firm seedbed for grass or pushing down turned over turf so it doesn’t get pulled back up so do I want a heavy press or is the type of press more important?
Thoughts and experiences please.
