So ? To make these beet harvesters pay how many acres through them at a sensible rate per acre , looked at some that had been lifted yesterday if it had been ours would of got them to come back with baskets to pick up the huge amount left. So they push The stick forward to cover the acres but not fussed about leaving some better to pay bit more and have tidy job done . Than f**k it that'll do

My contractor is a big farmer and does an excellent job. If he didn’t l would have to get my own or find someone else to do it. Worth paying for a good job.

On there website , say they had a S/P slurry spreading machine & injector, any one know much about this side of things , not much of a list on the tender sale website,

I thought the website was crap, unless there is a better list hidden somewhere.

They had, until last year, a Vervaet Hydrotrike. It advertised slurry injecting on the side of it, but never had the beet body off it.
Was actually a five wheeler, with two smaller out rigger wheels to steady it.
But they went back to tractors and trailers.

3000 acres, £90/acre you get what you pay for. Plenty of contractors can get beet off in good conditions the real skilled operators will save your hide when things get tricky

Works with me. Click on link, then click on lot catalog. About 5 pages worth. Told schedule may change if finance companies decide to get involved, so dont know what that means ?
Nothing of interest to me as kit is mainly big boys stuff.
