[QUOTE="Banana Bar, post: 658592, member: 240"] Hello I'm Banana Bar from Bury St Edmunds, we employ S7ewie on our 50.7 ac farm. We grow wheat, barley, oilseed rape, sugar beet, blackgrass, sterile brome, barren brome, wild oats and a few cleavers. We use a 12 m Allman mounted sprayer although half the bronze nozzles are now worn so much it looks a bit like a pixie having a wee as it goes up the field. We have a really smart Clayson combine with a 12 foot cutterbar although it cuts a bit lop sided as we put an odd sized wheel on just after the Falklands war, when we cranked the studs up they went on cross threaded so I reckon it will stay like that until we can find an odd size for the other side. We also have a massive Allen Scythe mower that is known as the "barsteward" we cut all our margins with this as well as some contract mowing. Alongside this we have a flock of sheep, there are sixteen broken mouth ewes in total and only half of them are lame, the tup we have is a massive old boy and when he walks around in the snow his balls act like a snow plough. We have a sheep dog that looks a bit like a collie but he has a bit of Rottweiler in him and used to be pretty good at catching individual sheep (mind, like I said half are lame) until the postman ran over him and left him with 3 legs and a wonky eye. Good to have young lads coming into professional agriculture! BB [/QUOTE]
