Saw a field of grass in S Shropshire last week, near Newcastle on Clun. I even stopped to have a look, and confirmed in my own mind, it was probably a crop of hay waiting for the weather. I wouldn't have walked up it!

But arable....... He needed to get round with the telehandler and basket, and chainsaw those branches!!

It’s just a bit damp on the surface for my liking.

Must be desperate for straw. Surely they aren't going to bale that are they? Perhaps they can still burn it.

Simply just have to ask;
"WHY?"

Who ever farms that land has got to be a thrill seeker.

Could see him getting one of those machines in to tackle some of The Cotswolds finest banks.

Once they’ve finished they’ll obviously deep plough and cultivate, to a fine tilth before sowing!

 

[Universe]

Don't understand why for safety that you wouldn't tackle it vertically, other than the downwards/return run is wasted.
Bet they buckle up...

Watched the vid yesterday, dont think i'd be sitting in the drivers seat!!!!!!

There's stuff in the states, possibly Washington state at least as steep as that being cropped.

If that was a grass field it's not that steep. Been on worse than that mowing/ chopping. Here and New Zealand.
On a combine they seem to be coping well.

 

[Drillman]

Just think about the poor sod following him with the round baler!
