Today at work

[Pan mixer]

I normally like to cross it first time, then follow the tramlines second time. It makes it easier to see where you're going.
Didn't think about it this time
And the gps hasn't been picking up enough signal this afternoon to be of any use

My GPS was fine all afternoon, there has been a satellite change lately, it was in the section on here about that sort of thing, I didn't have to alter mine but my mate spraying next door had to nominate a different one....

 

[Adeptandy]

tried a bit of 'every other row' clod crushing, not so easy without self steering and RTK but successful anyhow.

This was second time over to try and beat the devils into submission - it was always my least favorite way of rolling before GPS

I am still not sure that it does much good.

Oh, and a bit more playing around with mums with new babies.

I'm with you on the rolling

It's amazing how it's gone from one extreme to the other. Spread some fertiliser today and fields I was making ruts in less than 2 weeks ago are now rock solid and the rut walls won't squash at all.

Our spring crops are due to go in tomorrow onwards - resorting to plough/ph to try and reach keep some moisture in rather than mintill or direct drill.

Yeah we are in the same boat here rough tramlines and a bad back

Is that on RTK as our signals lately have been poor with regular drop outs

Grr. Half a furrow too wide at one end. Baking nicely now. Will grind it up before the weekend.

that looks like granddads land......

My second lightest field. I'd not normally a) plough and b) be touching it in spring. But a slow power harrowing and a few rains will see an ace seedbed for next year's legume fallow mixture.
