Project 331, Vaderstad restoration and isobus conversion

[Zebbedee]

My 14th season using my vaderstad, grain and fert model. Does about 170 acres of spring barley a year. Makes a great job.

How much do you get In Hoppers ? Always fancied one, used to have a trailed rapid years ago which was a good drill and still going not too far away but the downfall with trailed was wet autumn drilling when power Harrow came in to its own, @Chae1 is it a vaderstad your mate bought ? Never seen a new one since years

You could just about get a ton of wheat seed in the hopper but it had to be empty to do it, and turning was done on the brakes for a bit.

The double hopper is adjustable but I have it set so I can get a whole 600kg bag of fert in and around 400kg of barley in a fill.

Yes exactly same as one in this thread, but grain and fertiliser.
