[QUOTE="Cordiale, post: 4677600, member: 57398"] What constitutes handling? Is it something as simple as picking the odd bit of stubble off the top? Or are we talking about physical manipulation of the furrows by hand and feet, and of course the headland shuffle. I watched a you tube video some time back of an Irish match and could not believe what I was seeing. A boy on a tractor setting his ridge and probably his father kicking and shaping the furrow every two or three feet. It was so blatant it made me feel sick and annoyed, but no one batted an eyelid. Makes the plough seem pointless, a fork and spade would be more use. [/QUOTE]
